The narrowness and breadth are in the mind

In ancient times......
A middle-aged man came to Abu Nawas. On his face seemed to be experiencing a very serious problem. After he greeted, he said to Abu Nawas "Oh Abu, tolanglah me, I'm having trouble in my family's problems". Then Abu Nawas asked, "What problem are you troubling?" . The man replied, holding his heavy head as though his neck were no longer capable of supporting a loaded head. "I have a wife, five sons and three daughters, my house is only 6 x 6, and it feels very narrow and stuffy with ten inhabitants, plus my wife who always nags at the small cause of our house. me to solve this problem oh Abu ". Without answering a word, Abu nawas got up from the seat and went to the back of his house.
Soon Abu Nawas came back with a female goat. "O my brother, take this goat home and keep it in your house, I hope your problem is solved". Surprised the man came home with a goat giving Abu Nawas. It is the custom of the people of that area not to deny something that the teacher instructed.

A week later, the man came to Abu Nawas again and reported that his house had grown narrower since the goats were inside his house. Then Abu Nawas gave a duck and told him to be kept in the house. With a frown amazed the man was back home with one more member of the house. A week later, the man came again, this time Abu Nawas gave him a hen to be nurtured inside his house as well.

After a month has passed since the man asked for instructions from Abu Nawas to solve the problem. He dadang again meet Abu Nawas. This time he really looked like someone who had just massed. With a desperate tone he said "O Abu, I really can not do it anymore, do not you add more residents of my house." With a smile Abu Nawas said "Now sell one by one the animals, start selling goats, then ducks a week later, and chicken then". Beaming, the man rushed home to sell the goats that had been living together in his house.

One day, Abu Nawas saw the man walking toward the market with a chicken he was about to sell. Then Abu Nawas asked "How are your house now?". With a face that shows the happiness of the man replied, "Thanks, Abu, My house now feels very wide since these animals I sell, all the residents of the house now feel happy and happy, my wife was no longer complain about our small house". With a smile Abu Nawas said "O my brother ,, Actually broad and narrow it is in the mind, if we are grateful with what is there, then we will feel the extent of the gift of God"
