The Apple Tree
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and lay around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow... He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
Time went by... the little boy had grown up and hegucci handbagscheap ed hardydior sunglassesjordan shoesjordan shoesnike shoesno longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a kid, I don’t play around trees anymore.” The boy replied, “I want toys. I need money to buy them.”“Sorry, but I don’t have money...but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy neverwow accountsbuy wow accountsworld of warcraft accountworld of warcraft accountsworld of warcraft goldshanghai apartmentscame back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?”“Sorry, but I don’t have a house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back since then.

I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?”“Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true.
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you...” the tree said. “I don’t have teeth to bite,” the boy replied.“No more trunk for you to climb on.” “I am too old for that now,” the boy said.Prada handbagdoor matdoor matCD Keyair jordanslotro accountwow account“I really can’t give you anything... the only thing left is my dying roots,” the tree said with tears.“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied. “Good! Old tree roots is the best place to lean on and rest. Come, Come sit down with me and rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears...
This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad... When we grown up, we left them, and only came to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy. You may think that the boy is cruel to the tree but that’s how all of us are treating our parents.
Take time out during the day for quietjordan shoesnike shoesdesigner walletsnike air force 1new jordantime to listen to your inner voice. You may want to use your quiet time to meditate or pray. However you use this time, the key is to shut out all of the noise around you by focusing deep within yourself. Breathing deeply during quiet time will also help you focus. I know it’s hard to find quiet time during a particularly busy day, but it’s so important — even if it’s just 10 minutes a day and you have to sneak away to get it. Quiet time can really make a difference in your life. It enables you to hear God speaking to your heart reminding you of His perfect love for you.
Be honest with yourself by paying attention to your actions. Actions speak louder than words, and they always tell the truth. What do your actions say about you? If you say you love your job, but your actions say otherwise, which docheap sunglasseswholesale shoeswow goldindoor playgroundplay equipmentplayground equipmentyou think is more true — your words or your actions? On the other hand, if you say you’re not good at a certain job, but your actions say otherwise, that’s also important. What do you do with this insight? You can use it to make more beneficial choices in your life. By being honest with yourself based on your previous actions, your actions moving forward will be based on truth instead of just what you tell yourself.
Despite what your subconscious may be telling you, you can have love with no limits. The key is to unconditionally love yourself first. A little boy asked his mother:"Why are you crying?" "Because I am a woman."She told him. "I don't understand"he said. His mum just hugged him and said:"And you never will." Later the little boy asked his father:"Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?" "All woman cry for no reason."Was all his dad could say. The little boy grow up and became a man, still wondering why women cry. Finally he put in a call to God, when God got on the phone, he asked,"God, why do women cry so easily?" God said:"When I made the women, she had to be special. I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world; yet, gentle enough to give comfort. I gave her innerworld of warcraft goldtouch panelextruderball valvegate valvedrop shippingstrength to endure childbirth, and the rejections many times comes from her children. I gave her hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complains. "I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even her children has hurt her very badly. "I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart."
"I gave her the wisdom to know that a goodbumper carmerry go roundNike shoxembroidery machinewomen's handbagstouch monitortrade wow accountshusband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strength and resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly." "And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. That is her exclusively to use whenever it is needed." "You see the beauty of a women is not the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair." "The beauty of a women must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where the love resides."
