Classic inspirational story: boy and apple tree

A long time ago, there was a tall apple tree. A little boy likes to play under this apple tree every day. He climbed the tree, ate the apple, and snored under the shade of the tree. He likes to play under this big tree, and this tree loves him too.

As time went by, the little boy grew up and stopped playing under the tree.

One day, the boy returned to the apple tree and looked sad.

"Come and play with me." The apple tree said to the little boy.

"I don't like to play like this, I want toys, but I don't have money."

"Sorry, I don't have money, but... you can take all my fruits and sell them, so you have money." The boy was very happy. So he took off all the apples and left happily.

I haven’t been back since long since, and the apple tree is very sad.

Until one day, the boy returned, and the apple tree was very happy. "Come and play with me."

"I don't have time to play with you. I have to work, I have to support my family. We need a house to shelter the wind and rain. Can you help me?"

"Sorry, I don't have a house, but... you can cut down all my branches to build a house." So the boy cut all the branches and left happily. Seeing the boy is very happy, the apple tree is also very happy. But since then, the boy has never appeared. The apple tree feels sad because of being alone.

On a hot summer day, the boy is back, and the apple tree is very happy. "Come and play with me."

"I am not in the mood, I am getting old. I want to go out and relax. Can you help me?"

"Sorry, I don't have a boat, but... you can build a boat with my trunk. Then you can go out and sail and be happy again." So the boy cut down the trunk and made a boat. He went out for a long time, and he hadn't seen it for a long time.

After leaving for many years, the boy finally came back. The apple tree said to him: "Sorry, I have nothing to give you any more. No apples have been eaten for you."

"I have no teeth, I can't move."

"There is no trunk for you to climb."

"I am old, I can't climb."

"I really want to give you something, but the only thing I have left is the stump that is going to die." The apple tree said with tears.

"After so many years, I am really tired. I don't need anything, just need a place for me to take a break."

"Great, then you will sit down and rest on me." The boy sat down and the apple tree smiled with tears in tears.

This is the story that happened to each of us. This apple tree is our parents. When we were young, we were entangled with mom and dad. Mom and Dad cared for us, raised us and played with us. When we grow up, we leave them. Only when we have difficulties and need help can we think of going back to them. Despite this, my parents did not care, pleaded, and offered everything without regrets. Maybe you will think that the little boy is too cruel to the apple tree, but this is how we treat our parents.
