MAO ZEDONG'S CHILDHOOD STORY !!!
When he was a child there was a very beautiful garden near his mother's hut.
The garden was so beautiful, it had such beautiful flowers that people from distant places used to come to see them. then his mother baecame old and fell sick. She was neither worried about her sickness nor about her old age. Her only worry was about what would happen to her garden.
Mao was young. He said to his mother " don't be worried mama, i'll take care of your garden."
And Mao took care of the garden, working from the morning till the evening. After one month his mother got better, and as soon as she could walk a little she came into the garden. Looking at the garden she was shocked ! The garden was ruined. All the plants have dried up ! All the flowers have withered and fallen away!
She became very much disturbed and said to Mao " you idiot , you were in the garden. What did you do here? All the plants are about to die ! What were you doing? "
Mao started crying and said " i took great care. I kissed each flower and loved it.
I cleaned and wiped off the dust from each and every leaf, but i don't know what happened. I was worried also, but the flowers went on withering away, the leaves went on drying out and the garden went on dying ! "
His mother said " you are an idiot ! you don't know yet that the life of flowers is not in the flowers and life of the leaves is not in the leaves ! "
The life of the plant is in a place that is not all apparent to anyone: IT IS IN THE ROOTS which are hidden beneath the ground ! If one doesn't take care of the roots, the flowers and leaves can't be taken care of ! However much they may be loved, howsoever the dust on the them may be cleaned , the plants will wither away.
SO, THE FLOWERS AND LEAVES COME OUT OF THE ROOTS, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND !!!
