Peace Of Mind

One cold morning, a poor shepherd was grazing his cattle in a pasture. He neither had enough clothes to wear nor even a pair of shoes.

Suddenly, a man came there on a horse, a famous dacoit. He dismounted, went to the shepherd and said, "Come and work with me. I will give you clothes and shoes. You will not have to worry even for your food." At this the shepherd replied, "I am content being a shepherd. At least I have peace of mind which you don't have." Hearing this, the dacoit got stunned and immediately went to the police station and surrendered.
