Hi Sajda ji,
1. You have got a beautiful name. I have heard it, but seen as a name
for the first time. (Anna: Sajda: Bowing head in front of a loved one or
elder)

2. The thing you posted, is normally taken as a joke, but it is a very
philosophical anecdot. It highlights that people are so much engaged in
seeing mistakes, that they miss out seeing even the most extraordinary
qualities that is in front of them.

3. There was a similar joke/ story about a man going to buy a horse. The
owner of the horse said that it can speak. The horse does say that for
last ten years he has won every race in the city. The man buys it.

After  a few days he brings the horse back to the owner to cancel the
sale, saying that the way it runs, it has never put foot outside of
stable.

If anybody has its original version, please post.
