Description:Translation (Htoi Awng) A long time ago, there was an orphan in a village. Since he was very young, his parents and siblings passed away. So, there was no one to care for him. So, he decided to be a soldier. He became a soldier when he grew up. Then, he didn't need to worry about the food and clothes because the government provided them. He got an allowance too. He saved all his allowance. He served in the military for about six years. He thought, "I have enough money, but I have no family to share with. Whom should I give some money to? As I grew up with many troubles, I know life is tough to survive. I should share this money with the elders who can't care for themselves." One day, a blind granny from a village was selling a pig at a market because she needed money for her food and clothes. A man came to buy a pig from her. The man asked, "How much?" The granny said, "It is 15 kyats." Then, he said that he could afford to buy it. The grandmother said, "Then, you can take it." The man knew that she was blind, so he paid the iron coins instead of the money. Those iron coins, which children played with, were priceless. The granny did not know that. She was happy because she thought she got money. She decided to spend 12 kyats to buy rice. And she would buy her clothes with the rest of the money. Then, she went to the shop and said she would like to buy some rice for 12 kyats. The seller packed the rice for 12 kyats. The granny gave 12 kyats to the seller and said, "Here! This is what I get after selling my pig. Take it." The seller said, "Granny! This is not money. They are just iron coins which children played." The orphan heard their conversation. He told the seller, "I will pay for the rice. Pack it quickly for her, please." Then, the shop owner packed lots of rice and gave it to the granny. The boy paid for the rice price. The granny was very happy. She blessed upon him, " I am poor and helpless. But, you help me like this. May you live longer without getting sick. May you live happily till the end of your life." The boy said, "Grandma, take this money and used it where you need it." He gave 5 kyats to her. Then, the granny was very happy and blessed him a lot. And she went back home. The orphan boy also went back to the military camp. A few years later, the war happened. They needed to go to war. During the war, many of his friends died. Some got seriously injured. He also got a shot in his chest, but the iron coins he took from the granny covered the bullet and saved his life. After the war ended, he went back to his native village. He got married and lived happily there. So, we should help the elders. Then, we can get blessings and live our lives happily without worries.
