Coral was the owner of a large inn. It was a popular hangout for tourists, but Coral was lazy and did not take proper care of it. The inn was dirty and its rooms were infested with mice. The dining area was full of cobwebs. People did not want to dine or stay at her inn. So, it was empty most of the times. One day, Coral’s uncle came to visit her. He asked her why her inn was empty most of the times. She said, “Uncle, nobody likes my inn any more.” Her uncle gave her a brass vase and said, “Put roses in it every day.” Coral arranged flowers in the vase. Then she noticed that the cobwebs were spoiling its beauty. Soon, she had swept the inn clean. Then she noticed that the sheets were dirty. So she changed them. Her inn looked clean and welcoming. Soon, people started pouring in and it became the most popular inn in town once again.
