I immediately went to a store that sold children's toys. On the way, I was attracted by the sound of the whistle in the hand of another boy, so I offered to exchange all my copper coins for his whistle. After I got home, I blew my whistle and walked through all the rooms. I was very happy about my whistle, but it made the whole family uneasy. My brothers, sisters, and cousins, upon learning of my transaction, told me that I had paid four times more than it was worth; reminded me that I could have bought many good things with the extra money; and laughed at my Stupid, I burst into tears in annoyance. The regret brought by everyone's original blame far exceeded the happiness that whistle gave me. However, this matter has always been remembered in my heart, and it will be very useful to me in the future. When I tend to want to buy something unnecessary, I say to myself, don't pay too much for this whistle, I save money. When I grew up and entered society, I observed people's behavior, and I thought that many, many people I met paid a high price for their whistles. When I see a man who is ambitious and keen on court favor, sacrificing time to go to court, and even sacrificing his rest, his freedom, his character and even his friends to obtain it, I say to myself, this man is for his The price paid for the whistle was too high. When I see a person obsessed with fame, often engaged in hectic and intense political activities, neglecting his own affairs, and causing his bankruptcy due to this negligence, I say that he has paid too much for his whistle. If I knew a miser who, in order to accumulate property, gave up all the comforts of life, gave up all the joy of doing good for others, refused to respect his fellow men, and rejected the joy that friendship brings, I say, poor man, you are doing nothing for your The price paid for the whistle was too much. When I meet a pleasure-seeking person who does not cultivate his moral character but spends his wealth pursuing physical pleasure, which results in serious damage to his health, I say, misguided person, what you are bringing to yourself is not happiness. But pain, you paid too much for your whistle.

When I see a man who pays attention to appearance, loves fine clothes, magnificent houses, luxurious furniture and furnishings, all of which exceed his property, and even ends up in debt and jail, I say, Woohoo! He paid too dearly for his whistle, too dearly. When I see a beautiful and gentle girl marrying a rough and violent man, I say, how pitiful she is, paying such a high price for a whistle. In short, I think that most of human suffering is caused by their misestimation of the value of things, because they pay too much for the whistle. However, I should pity these unfortunate people, and after much reflection, I think it is fortunate that the world is a place where certain very tempting things, such as King John's apples, are not available for purchase. If they were put up for auction I would probably go bankrupt on the purchase and I would find myself paying way too much for whistles again. Goodbye, dear friend, I believe that I will always be loyal to you and my love for you will never change. 9. Get up, lazy fool! Don't waste any more time, there will be plenty of time for you to sleep in the grave.
