Description: | Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The story I'm going to tell is about a man who was born to be poor. The poor man cut the trees, and sold those logs, and earned a living. He was a hardworking person, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape from poverty. Then, God would like to bless him. God thought, "This man is hardworking, but he doesn't have anything. He never becomes rich. So I will give him blessings." One day, God intentionally put a pack of gold on the way to the poor man's field. That day, the man didn't look at the ground while he was walking. He was looking at the sky and whistling while walking. So he walked over the gold and didn't get it. He worked in the field the whole day and went back home. God thought, "This man is walking while looking up at the sky." The next day, the pack of gold was hung on the tree. But he was looking at the ground while he was walking, without even giving a single glance at the sky. Then God couldn't give him any blessings. God was thinking hard, "When I put the gold on the ground, he walked while looking up at the sky. When I hung the gold on the tree, he walked while looking at the ground. I couldn't give him the gold then. I want him to be wealthy. What should I do?" Then one day, God put the gold inside the rice wrap. But the poor man was working the whole day without even eating lunch. When he finished his work in the evening, the rice was giving off a stinky smell. So he threw it away into the ravine. Then, he lost the gold inside the rice too. In the end, God realized that the man was born to be poor. People have different luck and fortunes. The story tells us that people were born with different fortunes. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya bai tsun na maumwi gaw ndai matsan gam gun ai wa a lam, matsan gam gun ai wa a lam rai nga.
