Remember your Parents…!!!

A little boy loved to play with a tree. He loved to climb the tree, loved to eat apples, loved to take the nap under its shadow. Time went on, the boy grew up and he no longer play around the tree.

One day the boy came. The tree asked him, “Hi. Come and play with me.”
The boy replied. “I am not a kid. I don’t play around tree. I play with toys. I need money to buy toys.”

The tree said... “I don’t have money but you can take all my apples and sell it. You will get money.”

The boy picked up all the apples of the tree and went on. He sold the apples and got money. He bought lots of toys. But he did not turn back. The tree was sad again.

One day again the boy came, he became a young man now. The tree said “Hi. Why are you sad? Come and sit under my shadow. I am feeling lonely without you.”

The boy said, “I don’t have time. I work for my family. I want to build a house for them. I need money.”

The tree said “I don’t have money. You can take my branches and trunk to build your house.”

The boy became happy. He cut all the branches and trunk of the tree and built a house for his family. And again the tree became alone. The boy did not turn back. Time passed on. After a long time the boy came back. He was old, looking sad, tired and lonely.

The tree asked him. “Why are you sad? I wish I can help u. But I don’t have apples. I don’t have branches. Even I don’t have shadow. Nothing to offer you.”

The boy (old man) replied. “I am tired of my life. I am alone I just need you. Can I sit down at your roots?”

The boy sat down. Both were happy and weeping.

Is the boy really cruel and selfish?

In my opinion I say NO. We are all like him and treating our parents like that. The tree is like our parent. We love to play them when we were kids. We leave them alone and come only when we are in need or trouble. We don’t have time for our parents.

No matter what, parents will always give everything to make us happy and solve our problems. And in return what they want is just our company.

Please love your parents. Don’t forget them. Give them time. Give them your company. They will be happy by seeing you happy. Please don’t leave your parents. Gratitude them.

One can get child as many as he wants, but parents he gets only once.
