Once upon a time, there lived a poor woodcutter. He didn't have money to bring food so he decided to cut trees and sell them. He sell the trees to the market and brought bread to his kids from the money he earned. He lived happily with this job.


One day when he was cutting an old tree next to the river. Suddenly a strong wind came towards his side and he slipped the axe from his hand and it fell into the river. This woodcutter jumped into the river and searched for the axe but he didn't find it.


After that, he sat on tree and talked to himself about what he can do and asked help from god. When he was shouting god hear that someone was getting in trouble. So god went to the woodcutter and asked what happened and woodcutter said the story. So god went into the river and retain with a gold axe but woodcutter said that it was not his axe. So god went into the river again and retain with a silver axe but woodcutter said that it was not his axe. After that god went into the river third time and retain with wood axe. And wood cutter said it was his axe and he thanks to the god. Finally god gave all the three axes to the woodcutter because he was honest to him.


This woodcutter was honest to god if it was a difficult situation. So be honest every time because it gives good benefits.
