Apple Tree

Posted on October 20th, 2007 | by KennetH | 564 Views

Few days ago, I received an email from a friend, and it’s quite meaningful and good for us to know.
The story was touching me…and it is true from what the story said
As well it happened in our daily life.
The purpose I posted them is to remind some of you might not notice it’s really happened in our daily life.
The original file is in PDF format, and I recaptured all the stories and pictures and rewrite them together in this post.
Hope you guys will like this post too.

So…Let’s story begin….

Long Back ago…
There was a huge Apple tree..

A Little boy loved to play with it..

He Love to climb the tree, love to eat apples…love to take the nap under its shadow

Times 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 the money.”

The boy picked all the apples of the tree
and went..
He sold the apples and got money… he bought lots of toys…But he didn’t turn back…
..
The Tree was again sad…
..

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 very lonely without you…”

The boy said…
“I don’t have time…
I work for my family…
I want to build Home for them…
I Need money…”

The Tree said..
“I don’t have money…
You can take my Branches and Trunk…and build your home…”

The Boy Became Happy…
He cut all the branches and trunk of the tree…

And built a home for him….

Again the tree became alone…
The boy didn’t turned back..
…Time passes on ..

After Long time the boy came back..
He was so old…Looking sad…Tired…And lonely..

The Tree asked him..
“Why are you Sad.. I Wish.. I Can help you…”

… 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 (Old man) sit down ..Both were happy & weeping …

Is the boy really cruel and selfish??
NO!!
We all are like him…And treating our parent 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 in trouble…

We don’t have Time for our Parent…
No matter what, parent will always give everything….

To make us happy and solve our problems… and in return what they want….
Just our company!

Please love to your parent…
Don’t forget them…
Give them Time…
Give them your company…
They will be happy by seeing you happy..…

Please Don’t leave your parent …
Gratitude them…One can gets Child as many as he want, but parent he gets only once…
Pay regards to your parent…

Love your family !!
Happy Family !

    是的,很感动..父母都是尽自己所能保护孩子和给孩子们最好的…
    在我心中”父母真的很伟大”…
    在这里我要向我亲爱的妈咪说~~妈咪,我爱你!~~
    每当大家谈起父母的伟大,,我便会想起一个朋友..
    6年前,,我认识了一个朋友..也认识了她的父母亲…
    我不知道该怎么向大家形容这对长辈..就投入’一’件事给大家听,看看你们怎么’看待’这对长辈,她们家家境还好,,够吃够用,,可是..父亲为了钱,,把女儿的处女卖了..!!我就说到这里…好难过哦,,!

    But then, I realise that the story is touching and sound so true…

    We’re like the boy all the while. Hope that after reading this, people like us will love parents and wiling to take care of them…

    This post is really meaningful. I think we sometimes forget about how much they sacrifice for us, and we tend to take things for granted.
