Essay

Text Box: Rose for Mother A man stopped at a flower shop to order flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away. As he got out of his car, he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, “I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. However, I only have seventy-five cents and a rose costs two dollars.” The man smile and said, “come in with me, I will buy you a rose.” He bought the little girl a red rose and ordered his own mother’s flowers. As they were leaving, he offered the girl a ride home. She said, “Yes, please! You can take me to my mother.” She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave. The man returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bouquet and drove two hundred miles to his mother’s house. (Source: www.moralstories.org/rose-for-mother/)

Many years ago, there lived a hermit in a forest in Sumatra. He did not grow food but depended on jungle fruit to survive. Soon, there was a drought, and all plants and fruit trees in the jungle died.

The old man had nothing to eat now, so he turned to begging. He went to a nearby village trying to get some food, at first, the villagers were happy to help him. However, when he came continually, they refused to give him anymore food. They told him to grow his own food.

One day, while the hermit was sitting in his hut, sad and hungry, he began to think about growing his own food. Just then, a boatman stopped by, and taking pity on the hermit, then he gave him some paddy seeds.

Before the boatman went away, he said, “These seeds will grow and give you everlasting harvest if you work very hard. If you are tired of the work, the paddy plants will turn into weeds.”

The old hermit worked hard to clear the land and sowed the seeds before the rains came. Strangely, after a short period of time, the paddy was ready for harvesting. The old man got a lot of rice from the harvest. After each harvest, the plants grew back again right away. When the villagers heard about the hermit and his wonderful paddy, they flocked to his paddy-field and took home as much paddy as they could.
