Huge trees and yellow trees

in ActnEarn4 years ago

There was a huge tree on the edge of a forest. As its roots reached deep into the ground, so did its stalks. The dense foliage of the tree provided shade to the people by blocking sunlight. The tree was inhabited by innumerable birds. The area around the tree was crowded with people and birds.

A sapling of a tree grows under this huge tree. It was a flexible and delicate yellow tree. It would bend in a little wind. One day two neighbors were talking.

Aiming at the yellow tree, the big tree said, "Oh, my little neighbor, why don't you dig your roots deeper into the ground?" Why don't you stand with your head held high like me?

The yellow tree smiled softly and said - I don't see any need for it. In fact, this way I am safe.

The big tree said: Safe! Do you think you are safer than I am? Do you know how deep my roots have penetrated? How thick and stiff is my stem? Even two people can't get along with me. Is there anyone who will uproot me and bring me down?

The tree turned away, annoyed by the direction of the yellow tree. Then one evening a terrible cyclone swept over the area. Many trees with roots were uprooted in the cyclone.

After the storm, the villagers went out to see the extent of the damage. They see that the condition of the skyscrapers is absolutely deplorable. They are either uprooted or broken. Only one of these exceptions catches everyone's eye. That is the yellow tree. After the storm was over, he raised his head again.But his arrogant giant neighbor tree is lying beside him like a skeleton.
