The Thief and the Blanket | A Short Bedtime Story for Adults

One dark night, a thief creeps into the house of a poor old dervish. He looks under the cup, behind the lamp, in every corner… and finds nothing. But the old man is not asleep. What he does next is the quiet heart of this story. Lesson: a kind heart does not hurt even an enemy — so why do we fight with our friends?
