Trees that grow slowly can be more mature


He was born with dystocia and was once considered a bad omen. After 3 years old, she still can't talk. Her parents are worried that he is dumb. He took him to the hospital for examination. Later, he finally spoke, but he was extremely fluent, and every sentence he said seemed to be said after strenuous consideration. When he was 9 years old, he still did. After the school, the teacher gave him the evaluation, "intellectual retardation, non-discipline," and the students are not willing to associate with him. The teacher even said to his father unceremoniously: "Your son will not have a good future!" He inferiority thought of truancy.

Father took him to the suburbs. The father asked: "Do you know the names of the two trees?" He said, "I don't know." "High is called Sabah, short is called fir, son, which one do you think is more precious?" It’s a Sabah tree. You see it is so tall.” “Wrong! It grows fast, the wood must be loose; it grows slowly, the wood is hard to sell money! And the greedy tree is not mature, don’t look at the early days of the Sabah tree. Going crazy, the longer and slower after 3 years, I haven’t seen a Sabah tree that is more than 10 meters away. The fir is different, don’t look it grows slow, but it keeps growing and it has a very long life. It’s not a problem to live for thousands of years.” He said, his father took him to a big tree. This millennium fir, which is straight into the sky, is still alive and prosperous. He looked up to his father and said, "Dad, you want to ask me to be a tree, a fir tree that grows slowly but always upwards, right?" Father nodded with satisfaction.

He no longer wants to skip school. Once in a manual class, he took a lot of effort to make a small bench, ridiculed by the teachers and classmates, but he still happily took home to show his father. Father is as happy as him. Because through this only a rough bench, my father saw that his son has the resilience of persistence and victory. Who is this little boy? Presumably everyone has already guessed that he was the scientific master of the later epic, Einstein.
