Water into Wine (I)

Water into Wine(l) (based on an African legend) Long ago, a wise king invited everyone to his palace for a feast. Everything was to be free. He asked only one thing of his guests. Each person was to bring a bottle of white wine. A man in the village wanted to go, but there was a problem. He did not have any wine to bring. “ I can buy some wine, ” he thought. " But it would be foolish to spend money for a party where every-thing is supposed to be free. "

The man thought about what he would do. He knew that there would be many people at the party. Each person would pour his wine into a big bowl, and everyone would drink from that bowl. “ Surely, no one will notice if I bring a bottle of water and pour that into the bowl, " said the man with a smile. With so much wine in the bowl, a little water will not make a difference. And so, on the day of the feast, the man arrived at the palace with his bottle of water.
