The rainy season has passed so that everywhere looks green trees. There was a caterpillar in the verdant foliage wobbling in the wind.
"How are the green leaves", he said ... ..
The green leaf jerked toward the incoming sound.
"Ohh ... you caterpillar, your body looks thin and small, why?", Asked the green leaves.
"I barely get leaves for my food, may you help me with my best friend? ", Said the small caterpillar.
"Sure ... .here, close up here, green leaves think if I give a little of my leaves to the caterpillar's food, I'll stay green. It's just that I'm going to be plastic, but it does not matter to me. "
Slowly the caterpillar moves its body toward the green leaf. After a meal full of caterpillars thank the green leaves who have let some of his body into the food of the caterpillar.
When the caterpillar thanked the compassionate friend and the sacrifice, there was a sense of contentment in the green leaf. Even once his body is now hollowed here and there but he is happy to do something for the hungry little worms.
Not long ago when the summer came the green leaves became dry and discolored. Finally he fell to the ground in a broom and burned.
Companions, What does it mean in our lives that we are reluctant to make little sacrifices for others?
Well ...... in the end everything that exists will die for his neighbor who does not close his eyes when his neighbor is in trouble.
The one who does not turn his back and does not hear when his neighbor shouts for help. He is willing to do something for the benefit of others and momentarily forget self-interest.
Releasing pleasure and self-interest for others is not easy, but beautiful.
When sacrificing ourselves to be like a hollow green leaf but actually it does not affect our lives, we will stay green and God will still bless and nourish us.
For the green leaves to sacrifice is something impressive and feels beautiful and satisfying. He is happy to see his neighbor can smile because of the sacrifices he made. He also did it because he realized that he would not forever remain a green leaf, one day he would dry and fall.
So our life, life is just a moment, then we will die. That's why fill this life with good deeds, compassion, sacrifice, understanding, loyalty, patience, and humility.
Make the sacrifice fun and bring our own joy. We can sacrifice in many cases, put our fellow interests first, do something for them, give what we have and more sacrifices we can do.
Which one do we often do?
Being a small worm who accepts the goodness of the person or becomes a green leaf who likes to give ......?
It all depends on each of us, because someone will live according to how he views life.
