There was a poor guy who thought he was a loser. He felt shame for himself for doing nothing in his life. Finally he can’t bear those negative feelings anymore, he wanted to jump off a cliff to end himself.
When he was standing by the cliff, he started crying and talking to himself about all the frustrations in his life. Then the tree from the crevice of the rock started crying too.
The guy stopped crying and asked the tree : Why are you crying? Are you frustrated with your life too?
The tree said: I am the most miserable tree in the world, look at where I am located, It’s so difficult to be growing in the crevice. Not enough soil and water, my roots can’t deep in , my branches can’t stench out, I don’t have enough nutrition, so I look weird and ugly. Everyone thinks I am a tough tree only myself knows how struggling I am, to be honest ending my life is much easier than surviving in the difficult living enrollment.
The guy asked: if this is the case, why are you still here?
The tree said: yes it’s easy to die, but do you see the nest on my head? It was built by two magpies, they have been living in here for a long time and now they have several generations. If I’m gone then they will lose their home. So I can’t just end myself.
The answer from the tree made the guy change his mind, he walked back to his home.
We all have sadness sometimes , don’t think you are nothing, actually you’re something to someone somehow.
