Hello again, this is Grace Mann, from the SOH Radio Network. In Ancient Tales of Wisdom, today I have a beautiful and heart warming story to share with you. So, for now, sit back relax and enjoy “The Will of a Millionaire.”

Many years ago on a bitterly cold winter night in Washington, D.C., a prominent businessman’s wife accidentally dropped her purse in a hospital. The businessman was extremely concerned when his wife returned home and told him, and immediately returned to the hospital in the hope of finding it.  The reason for his anxiousness was because the purse not only contained $100,000 in cash, but also a very confidential marketing document.

As the businessman hurried into the hospital, in the distance, he saw a very gaunt young girl squatting down in the hallway, trembling from the cold. He instantly stopped and walked toward the girl, as he got closer, could see the purse she was holding was identical to that of his wife’s.

Ancient Tales of Wisdom today reveals how encounters of any kind, can never really be perceived as being by chance, regardless of how or when they may be presented to us.  This story tells us how it pays to  remain conscious at all times and not allow those initial thoughts and perceptions we sometimes have, to lead us away from, and maybe miss, what could have been one of our destined opportunities.

Welcome back to the SOH Radio Network, the home of Ancient Tales of Wisdom. Hello everyone, I’m Grace Mann, it’s great to be back with you again.  Today’s tale is adapted from the writing ‘An Account of Meeting with Deities’ and it is entitled: Missing the Opportunity.

The Ten Friends of Weiyang were ten people who were wealthy and content with what they had. They weren’t interested in pursuing government positions neither were they greedy about their money. One thing that they liked to do was to get together and talk about metaphysics and Taoism. The ten friends were like brothers and were extremely close, so they often took turns hosting dinner parties.

Ancient Tales of Wisdom transports insights of sages from eras long gone. These gems, in their way and form bring forth genuine ‘food for thought’ that touches the most fundamental core of our being.  Again, this story is no different, it simply shares with us, how one’s heart and mind nature reveals our true beauty.

In our tale of wisdom today the author expounds on the difference between good looks and True Beauty.  Hello again everyone, this is Grace Mann from SOH Radio Network, the home of Ancient Tales of Wisdom. Our story today is simply titled: TRUE BEAUTY.

Long ago, the author visited a friend and they decided to watch a movie. The male character in the movie was a fine-looking young man. In the role he played, he was born into a very rich family and from a young age became accustomed to being arrogant and overbearing towards other people. During the movie my friend commented, “This boy is very handsome.” I frowned and said, “I don’t see him as handsome, because the character he is portraying is big-headed, superficial and unkind and for that reason I see him as unattractive.”
