A voice called and said I'll leave with you and follow you wherever you go, Even if it is to the afterlife and the king looked and it was his first wife, But this was the wife that he took care of the least he felt embarrassed and said I'm sorry I should have taken more care of u and given u more attention when I was alive.

The mora of this story is that we all have 4 wives, our 4th wife is our body we like to decorate it with nice jewelry, nice clothing but in the end it can't follow us to the afterlife, The 3rd wife represent our possession like, car's, house's, company's etc
We spent so much time trying to gather possession but in the end they cannot follow us to the afterlife it will be given to other people and divided, just like the 3rd wife said she's going to remarry.
The second wife represent our friends and family we trust them, They are always there for us in times of need, But the furthest they can go with us is to our funeral and send us off,

Our first wife represent our soul we usually neglect taking care of our soul that is the only thing that will follow us to the afterlife, Care for ur body keep it healthy, enjoy your possessions and the comfort they provide, cherish ur friends and family for the love that the provide, But don't forget to take care of ur soul nourish ur soul, take time to pray, take time to meditate, because it is the source and you must have faithful friend, I hope this story can help you or and those ur love ones . Thanks u all for this wonderful message
