The meaning of Life
The real treasure of Life

 

�nce upon a time ... 
a day with very sunny weather ... 
Somewhere, was a wise man who adored his daughter and wanted to offer her everything. He wanted to reveal the most precious treasure! The value of life. He was so wise that gave the most beautiful and correct answers to anything inquired him from anybody. His daughter Hope had blonde curly hair, deep blue eyes like the ocean that sparkle with every glance and always wore ethereal dresses, sometimes decorated with strawberries and sometimes with flowers and blossoms.

One evening, before the sun goes to sleep as her father was sitting outside in the garden, on a rocking chair with a book in his hands for company, Hope approached him and burst out with joy. Her front teeth were larger than the others, as if it were an adorable bunny. She then came closer to him and asked him ... 
"Dad, Dad?" 
"What is it my love?" He responded with joy, taking her on his lap with pure love. 
"What is the most important thing in the world? I hear others say money is everything, others say beauty and glamour, others expensive cars and houses and people all the time constantly complain. You, who you are wise, tell me please, what it is that will make me accomplished when I grow up? " She whispered, sitting on his knees. Then, the wise father smiled: 
"None of this my daughter ..." 
"None?"
"Come on, open your hand," he said. 
Hope opened her hands with question. "Plant these small seeds there on the ground on the side that nothing has blossomed, not even a small flower, and I promise you, you will acquire the most precious treasure!" Little Hope closed her cherry lips disappointed. She asked her wise father a bunch of questions about what it takes for her to succeed when she grows up, she asked him to reveal the most important secret of life, and her father just gave her a handful of seeds ... 
 

However, she took immediately the seeds with evident wonder and run to plant the seeds exactly where her dad told her. So every morning, she woke up and went to the place where she had planted the seeds and she waited. Observing day after day and she was puffing and blowing... Waiting for a week, two weeks... The month pasts and there seemed nothing special in the soil to make her happy and delighted. Then she decided to go to talk to her dad again. 
"Dad, I planted the seeds just like you told me, months passed, but nothing happened." 
Then, the wise father smiled and embraced her without answering anything to her ... 


***




Several years later, a huge beautiful eucalyptus covered with its shadow half of their house and its branches were wonderful and full of life, singing with the fresh air as a conductor and Hope enjoyed the coolness of that tree. 

 

Hope had grown up now and had her own family. When they went all together to visit her dad, Hope approached him, giving him a sweet kiss on the cheek. Then he explained to her... 
"The most important thing my daughter is not what you now see and admire, a huge eucalyptus, but what you had created the first month of his life... The roots and the foundations in life you should know that is everything! The time you spend with your loved ones is the value of life, " he said and she smiled at him with a faint smile on her lips, clutching him in her arms. "You have your health, your family, you can observe the world and nature, rejoice with what you got and enjoy every single day as if it is was your last... this is Gratitude! This is the most precious treasure in Life�" 
"Thank you so much Daddy ..." She whispered. 
Hope walked up the tree, took a deep breath of its fragrance and stroked the trunk. Shortly afterwards, her little daughter run to her. Hope recounted the story to her daughter, putting some seeds in her little hands. She told her to plant them just next to that tree and the little one did it... Hope discreetly winked to her dad and whispered to him again: "Thank you�" 
 


"All important things in life need time, proper infrastructure and a solid foundation to crate deep roots. So does human soul and character� Gratitude!"
