he found nothing wrong with his body. “It’s all in his mind. Neither medicine nor rest can help him. What he needs is the shirt of a happy person to wear. That’ll make him happy.” The prime minister was called to the palace. But when they explained the king’s situation to him, he said, “Although I have a lot of power, it doesn’t make me happy. I’m always worried about losing my power. Many people are trying to take my position.” Then, the king’s banker came to the palace. “Oh, I’m afraid I’m not happy either,” he said. “I have a lot of wealth, but I’m always worried about losing my money. Someone tries to steal my money every day.” Next, the palace singer came to the king’s room. But this is what he said: “It’s true that I’m famous and everyone loves my songs. But I’m not happy because I’m always worried about being followed by others. I cannot be free!” Finally, the king’s top general was told to go out and find a happy man in three days’ time.
