🔵 EL COLLAR DE ORO Y EL JOVEN CODICIOSO - CUENTO

The golden collar and the greedy young man It was a busy day at the local market in a certain town and both merchants and Customers spoke in unison discussing product quality or haggling over prices Among the thousands of trinkets clothing cheap perfumes and all kinds of items A man stood out who had a gold jewelry stall Just like all his colleagues he spoke passionately about the quality of his jewelry crafted by expert artisans using the finest available metal Potential customers surrounded them weighing a necklace a bracelet trying to obta A good price while they were figuring out how much they could afford to spend from their wallet They were all engaged in the activity when a young man walking carelessly suddenly He stopped in front of the said position and stood enchanted gazing at the precious jewels Suddenly without giving any of the customers a chance to react he rushed in About a beautiful necklace and taking it he ran off as if possessed Then everyone started shouting for the thief to be stopped while some ran after him In this way he was quickly caught and the police were able to take him into custody While in this process the merchant approached with the intention of retrieving his necklace When he was next to the young man he couldn't hide his curiosity and said to him —There's something I don't understand I should have known it was impossible to escape from this place with that You robbed them Then why did you decide to do it in broad daylight and in front of everyone The boy as if just waking from a trance answered confusedly When I took the collar I didn't really see anyone I could only see the shine of the gold Reflection The greed can so enslave us that it completely alters our perception of the reality That obsession can isolate us from the world to the point where our thoughts no longer They obey rationality and lead us to reckless actions
