Haste and Anger.

Today, I'm going to be sharing with you guys, one of the stories that highly captivated my heart, as a kid. I'm sure I would not forget this for the rest of my life.

Hello all, The Earthian here.

So, the story goes like this.

Once there was a poor farmer in a very small village with his daughter. The daughter was 5 years old. It was around Christmas time and everyone was very busy buying presents for their families and loved ones. The daughter noticed this. Even though she knew she couldn't afford anything big, she too wanted to give her dad a present. So, she found a small box, filled it with her kisses, and closed it tightly and wrapped it neatly.
A few days later, right on the day of Christmas Eve, the farmer had faced yet another problem in his small field. The pests had eaten up a considerable amount of crops and this put the farmer in a very bad mood. The poor daughter had no idea about this incident. She, with a huge smile on her face, went to her dad and gave the box to him. The farmer opened it up and found it to be empty. He got furious, and he yelled at his daughter for giving him an empty box as a present. The little girl, with tears in her eyes, told him that she had filled the box with her love in the form of kisses.
On hearing this, the farmer welled up and gave his little girl a hug and realized that all he ever needed was in her.

Now, why am I sharing this with you?
Well, I just wanted to tell you that it's your loved ones that you can hurt the easiest. We face problems with with our bosses at work, we shout at our family.
We have a bad day at school, we shower the anger at our parents, siblings. We fail in sports, we get mad at our team mates. Often, we forget that we don't have a lot of loved ones and we are driving the ones we do have, away. Don't be that person.
Love is not something you see, it's something you feel, from within, and mostly, only if you want to feel it.

Lots of love, peace.
