Assyrian Tablet

One person came to the counselor and in a pitiable tone said, “Life is so unfair and the world so unjust. Death is better than life. None can be trusted, including wife and children. My parent’s mistake, I was born. My mistake, my children are born. Everything looks meaningless and worthless”.


The counselor opened a book and started reading, “Life is so unfair and the world so unjust. Death is better than life. None can be trusted, including wife and children. My parent’s mistake, I was born. My mistake, my children are born. Everything looks meaningless and worthless”

The man was shocked and said why you are repeating what I have said. The counselor said, “I am not repeating what you have said, just reading aloud what was written six thousand years ago in an Assyrian tablet. Nothing seems to be original including our miseries and sorrows. For thousands of years nothing much is changed except superficial technologies.”
