A powerful parable about desires: why some have everything and others have nothing
Create your own happiness! The parable is about how everything is real when you know what you really want and when you are ready to take responsibility for your life.

One man dreamed of a better life. He didn’t like the house in which he lived, the clothes he wore, in a word, everything that surrounded him. He wondered why someone had everything they could dream of, while he had nothing.
“If only I had a good house, a beautiful wife, a lot of money, then I would be happy,” the man thought all day long.
And then one day he met the Wizard.
“I heard your thoughts,” said the Wizard, “and I am ready to help you.” Tell me what you want and I will make it happen.
The man was very happy. At first he didn't believe his luck.
Does this really happen? Just ask and everything will come true! Perhaps you want something in return?
But the Wizard replied that he did not need anything.
“You’ve been asking for so long that I thought you probably know exactly what you need.” Just ask and everything will happen!
Great! – the man was happy. – I need a big beautiful house! A beautiful wife, but she must know how to cook well. I also need to always have lots and lots of money!
“Okay,” answered the Wizard. - You will fall asleep, and tomorrow morning you will wake up, and you will have all this.
And indeed, the next morning the man woke up in a large luxurious house, he was greeted by a smiling beauty who was his wife. Breakfast was already prepared. Everything was great. An account was opened in the bank in his name, and no matter how much he spent, the account was replenished all the time. At first the man did not believe his luck. He was simply delighted!
But day after day flew by, month after month, and nothing changed in his life. He asked himself the question: what more could you want, since I already have everything? But meanwhile, he felt that he had not found the desired happiness. And he began to call the Wizard again.
Why am I unhappy, because I have everything? - the man asked the Wizard when he came to him again.
I did everything you wanted. So enjoy your happiness!
I can not. In my huge house I feel lonely, my beautiful wife does not make me happy. And the money I wanted so much does not bring me satisfaction. Why, answer me Wizard!
“You asked me for a house, but you didn’t ask for warmth and comfort in it!” You asked me for a wife, but you didn’t ask for love and understanding! You asked me for money, but you didn’t ask for the freedom, strength and joy that it can give! - answered the Wizard.
The man was very happy.
Thank you! “I understand everything,” he said. - I want it all! Give me that!
Well, since you understand everything, then go and CREATE EVERYTHING YOURSELF! - said the Wizard and disappeared.
And the man woke up in his old house, alone without his wife and money. But now he had confidence and knowledge of what he really wanted.
