 Never Judge The Book From It's Cover

Author : NIHAR SHETH

In a forest there were four friends rose, sunflower, pine tree and cactus. Rose was very proud of its beauty and always criticised cactus for its appearance.
Once rose told cactus, "You are of no use. I don't know why god made you?"
Cactus remained silent.
A sunflower raised its yellow head and asked, "Why do you say that?"
The pine tree said, "Red rose, what kind of talk is this? You have thorns too."
"What a proud flower," thought the trees.
The rose tried to move its roots away from the cactus, but it could not move.
The cactus never got upset and even tried to advise the rose, saying, "God did not create any form of life without a purpose."
Summer came weather became very warm. Life became difficult in the forest, as there was no rain. The red rose began to dry.
One day the rose saw sparrows stick their beaks into the cactus and then fly away, refreshed. This was puzzling. He asked pine tree why were birds doing that.. and didn't it hurt.
Cactus replied "Yes, but I don't like to see the birds suffer."
The rose exclaimed, "The cactus has water?"
"Yes, you can also drink from it. The sparrow can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help." said the pine tree
The red rose felt too ashamed to ask but finally it did ask for help. The cactus agreed. The birds helped.
Thus the rose learned a lesson.
