One day, at the edge of a barren rice field, there was a farmer who was daydreaming. He looked very sad.
Suddenly. a white-haired old man appeared before
him and said to the farmer.
"My son, why do you look gloomy and sad? You seem to have a very
heavy burden of life. Would you please tell me about it?" said
the old man.
"Yes, old man. My burden is very heavy. It seems I can no longer bear it," replied
the farmer.
"Do not talk like that, my son. You
can certainly surpass all these obstacles if
you're willing to work harder."
"I've worked very hard, Sir. However, the results are still not enough to meet all the needs of my family life,"
the farmer tried to explain.
"Do not worry. I'll help
you," the old man said. "How?" asked the farmer.
"Plant these seeds in your field. Treat them well. Remember! If
you've managed to become rich, do not forget your neighbours and the people around
you. Help them," the old
man said, handing the seeds he had
promised.
"Thank you, Sir. I will plant
these seeds and care for them. I also will do your
wish," said the farmer. Suddenly, the old man disappeared.
Soon the farmer planted the seeds. He took good care
of them. As a result, a few months later he had abundant harvest. Several
years later, the farmer had become a wealthy farmer. He was loved and
respected by his neighbours and the people around him
because of his good manner.
