Happiness is not what we can get in life but what we can give for life
Value of life
Once there was a young man who lives alone. This young man is saturated with his life. He doesn't understand what life is in this world.
Empty .. Desperate ..
He thought of ending his life soon. He inserted a rope to hang himself on a tree.
Then, suddenly the tree interrupts gently. "Please don't hang yourself here. Every morning there are lots of birds that sit there, sing and entertain anyone around here."
Angry, the young man went looking for another tree. But always rejected.
After being repeatedly rejected, the young man became angry and wanted to cut down all the trees. He went home and took an ax to cut down the trees. Suddenly a neighbor rebuked the young man, "where do you want to go with that ax?" His face looked so shocked. The young man replied, "I want to cut down trees!"
Wow! Can you cut it for my use too? I want to cook."
The young man fell silent not answering. He only looked at his old face. Sympathy arises in his heart. Finally he replied, "Alright. I'll find the wood for you."
.
The young man passed with his ax. He wanted to cut down the trees that had thrown it out earlier. Seeing the young man coming, the tree spoke to him, "you again? Why did you come with an ax?"
.
"I want to cut you down and make you fuel to help my old brother cook his food"
.
The tree was shocked and immediately replied, "Wow that's great ... You have changed. You are a good and responsible young man now. Please cut me down. I am very happy to be able to benefit others."
.
The young man was shocked. He thinks deeply.
.
"A tree also values life. They love themselves and try to be useful to other beings."
.
"Then what about me? I'm a young, strong and healthy human."
.
What is the message?
.
Remember, if we fill our lives by complaining and pessimism, we will live life hard.
.
Happiness is not what we can get in life but what we can give for life.
