There were two angels traveling and stopping to spend the night in the house of a wealthy family.
The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead, the angels received a small space in the cold basement.
As they made their bed on hard ground, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it, when the young angel asked him why, the older angel answered: things are not always, what they seem to be.
The next night, the couple comes to rest with a verypoor farmer but very hospitable and his wife, after sharing the little foodthey had, the poor couple let the angels sleep in their beds where they couldhave a good night's sleep.
When the sun rose the next morning, the angels foundthe farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been theironly income, lay dead in the field.
The youngest angel was furious and asked the olderangel:
How could you have that? The first man had everything,and yet you helped him.
She accused him saying:
The second family was a little bit but willing toshare everything and you let the cow die.
Things are not always, what they seem to be. The olderangel answered.
When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed that there was gold stored in this hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and did not want to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he would not find it.
Then last night, as we slept in the farmers' bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I give him the cow instead. Therefore, I told you: Things are not always, what they seem to be.
