One year in 40 seconds from Eirik Solheim on Vimeo .
After watching the video I was reminded of this story that gives us a life lesson :
was a man who had four children. He was looking for them to learn not to judge things so quickly, then sent to each in turn to see a pear tree that was a great distance.
The first son went in the winter, the second in Spring, the third in summer and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and returned, he called together and asked to describe what they saw.
The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent and twisted.
The second said no, that was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with flowers that smell very sweet and had looked very beautiful, was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.
The last son disagreed with any of them, he said it was ripe and drooping of both fruit, full of life and satisfaction.
Then the man explained to his sons who all were right, because they had only seen one of the stations of the tree's life.
He told everyone not to judge a tree, or a person, just to see one of their seasons, and that the essence of who they are, pleasure, joy and love that comes with life can be only measured at the end, when all the seasons have passed.
If you give up your winter, you lose the promise of spring, the beauty of summer and welcome fall.
not let the pain of a station that destroy the rest.
not judge life by one difficult season only.
Persevere through difficulties and bad times ... probably better times lie ahead
God bless you!
