One king said to his sage: “Sage, you must solve three questions. If you solve it, I'll get rich. No, that’s the head off my shoulders. And the questions are: What is the most important time? Who is the most important person? And what is the most important thing? Three days." The sage left. I thought and thought, but came up with nothing. He goes crying. I feel sorry for my head! Walks through the field where the girl was herding geese. She asks him: “Why are you crying, old man?” He told his sadness. And the girl answers him: “Oh, it’s so simple. The most important time is NOW. Because the past has already flown away, and the future has not yet arrived. The most important person is the one who is NOW next to me. After all, he can leave, and I will never see him again. And the most important thing is the thing that I will do NOW for the person who is NEAR me.”
