THE THREE DOLLS

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

*ATTENTION*

On behalf of the team #TeamRalph I wish to personally thank everyone who participated in the Q&A on whatsApp, we say Ayekoo (Welcome) next week is the Twitter edition.

A sage presented a prince with a set of three small

dolls. The prince was not amused.

“Am I a girl that you give me dolls?” – He asked.

“This is a gift for a future king,” Said the sage. “If

you look carefully, you’ll see a hole in the ear of

each doll.”

The sage handed him a piece of string. “Pass it

through each doll.” – He said.

Intrigued, the prince picked up the first doll and put

the string into the ear. It came out from the other

ear. “This is one type of person,” said the sage,

“whatever you tell him, comes out from the other

ear. He doesn’t retain anything.”

The prince put the string into the second doll. It

came out from the mouth. “This is the second type

of person,” said the sage, “whatever you tell him,

he tells everybody else.”

The prince picked up the third doll and repeated

the process. The string did not come out. “This is

the third type of person,” said the sage, “whatever

you tell him is locked up within him. It never

comes out.”

“What is the best type of person?” – Asked the

prince.

The sage handed him a fourth doll, in answer.

When the prince put the string into the doll, it

came out from the other ear.



“Do it again.” – Said the sage.

The prince repeated the process. This time the

string came out from the mouth. When he put the

string in a third time, it did not come out at all.

“This is the best type of person,” said the sage.

“To be trustworthy, a man must know when not to

listen, when to remain silent and when to speak

out.”
