The joy of life

I have two boxes in my hands that God gave me.  God told me:

 “Put your sorrows in a black box. Your joys in a golden box”

 I listened to God.

 I used to put my joys and sorrows in boxes.

 The golden box became heavier day by day and the black box became lighter day by day.

 One day, out of curiosity, I opened the black box to find out the reason.  In disbelief, I saw that the bottom of the box had a hole and my sorrows were pouring out.

 I turned to God in surprise and said:

 “God, why did you give me these boxes? And why is there a black hole at the bottom of the box?”

 And God answered with a pleasant smile: “O my servant, I gave you the golden box to count the happy moments of your life and I gave you the black box to throw away the bitterness of your life and live happily ever after.”
