There once lived a King Solomon in Jerusalem.
One day he wanted to tease his Minister and ordered him to fetch a magical thing which will make a happy man sad and a sad man happy.
The King gave him six months time to find out this thing.
The Minister knows pretty well that such a thing does not exist. Any how he visited each and every place in his kingdom to find out the thing. Nearly the days have lapsed and in the final week he met an old man who was selling old things and told him his problem. He smilingly took away a gold ring and scripted some words in the ring and gave it to the minister.
The Minister went to the Palace and told the King that he brought the Magical thing which will make a happy man sad and a sad man happy.
The Minister gave away the ring to the King.
THIS TOO SHALL PASS
was written in the ring. On seeing the words the king became sorrowful for he knows that his joy is not permanent. The sorrowful people on seeing the words were happy that their sorrow was not a permanent feature.
Till to day many people have this caption in their boardroom.
THIS TOO SHALL PASS.
