So it has to go this way..
Once upon a time…….. There was a tree; standing proudly amidst other trees with delicious fruits on it branches round d year.. A man used to approach the tree with a sack, remove few fruits, gather them and go back home with the sack full of fruits.. He used to repeat it daily..
The tree used to think that he must have planted n nurtured it and hence, he deserves to get its fruits.. The tree used to provide him with its fruits happily without any hesitation..
It continued for years until that inauspicious day dawned..
That day the man approached the tree with an axe in his hand instead of the sack.. The tree trembled with fear on his sight.. It was terrified wen the man starting attacking it with his tool..
Finally, it decided to ask him..
Tree: Why are you cutting me..?? You’ve planted and nurtured me with too much affection, isn’t it..?? I can provide you with fruits for more years..
The man started laughing upon hearing this..
Man: Who told you that I planted u..?? It’s not true.. I never planted you.. Infact, someone else had thrown the seeds randomly and soon there were trees all around this place.. I just enjoyed your fruits over the years.. And now, since I need your wood for burning purpose, I’m cutting you down..
The tree wept..
The tree felt the pain as the wounds of axe were getting larger.. Finally it realized that it believed the man unknowingly to so much extent that it shouldn’t have done so..
The tree was getting weaker after each attack..
Suddenly it regained its strength and held the axe in its stem so firmly that the man was unable to remove it even after many efforts.. The man tried his best to pull it out but in vain..
Eventually he realized his mistake and left the tree with those SCARS…!!
