The Vegetable Seller!! (Short Educative Story- II)

A vegetable vendor used a white board with the word 'Fresh Vegetables Sold Here' to attract people to buy his vegetables.

A man came up to him and said, "Simply by seeing we can tell that your vegetables are so fresh. Why do you need to advertise them as fresh? Rub off the word fresh."

The vendor did so leaving behind the words "Vegetables sold here" on the board.

Another man came and said, "We know you are selling vegetables not fruits. Why don't you wipe off the words vegetables?" The vendor complied. Left on the board now were two words 'Sold here'.

After a while an elderly lady approached him and said, "If you are sitting in the market, you are not giving your veggies for free, are you? Take off that 'Sold'."

The vendor removed the sold and the white board had only one word left - 'Here'. A school boy passing by teased the vegetables seller saying, "Everyone in the world knows you are sitting here not there. So, why the 'Here'." The vegetable seller erased the last word making the white board clean and empty.

Another person came up and said, "Only a stupid man will keep such a nice white board empty. Why don’t you write something on it to advertise your vegetables?"

Everybody around us has an opinion to make. Everyone has an suggestion to offer. And most often with the best intentions!

But will you listen to everyone? If we end up listening to what everyone else has to say, we may forget to do what we are inspired to do, what we are meant to do. In the noise of others suggestions and opinions 'DON’T LOSE YOUR VOICE'.

Take good advice but also learn the art of navigating through that advice to follow YOUR OWN JOURNEY.💙
