The man who carried stones

“People were amazed, the doctor was amazed, the priest was amazed. Not the boy.“

There was a man who had the ability to burp a stone every time he had a worry. You would think that would make him happier and content, but he would then pick up the stone, tied it to a string and carry it on his back. He might not feel the troublesome worries inside of him anymore, but his body began to give in to the weight of the stones.

The doctor had no medicine for such an extraordinary ailment, the priest wasn’t able to cure him with faith, until a little boy, inquisitive and with a good heart, decided to really listen to him.
