An old man was sitting on the sofa inhis house with his adult son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) sat on their window. Hethought of something in the past, so he decided to do something for therelationship between his son and him.
"What's that?" asked the father."It is a crow," answered the son.
"What is that?" asked the fatheragain after a few minutes. "Father, I just told you. It's a crow,"said the son.
"What's that?" asked the oldfather a third time.
Why do you keep asking me the same questionagain and again? I told you so many times : 'IT IS A CROW'!" shouted theson.
After a little while, the father went tohis room and came back with an old diary. He asked his son to read thefollowing words in the diary:
"Today my 3-year-old son was sittingwith me on the sofa. When a crow was sitting on the window, he asked me 23times what it was, and 23 times I answered him, ‘it is a crow.' I hugged (拥抱)him lovingly each time he asked me the same question, again and again."
When your parentsget old, do not look at them as a burden(负担), but be kindto them.
