The story of mango trees

In a mango field, there were many trees. One of the trees was famous because it produced big and sweet fruits. One day there was a little tree planted beside the famous tree. The little tree was very excited about the place. The little tree was busy asking the famous tree, “What is the secret of producing big and sweet fruit?” The famous tree answered, “Surrender”. The little tree got confused and felt disappointed with the answer.

One day there was a cutting sound around the field. All of the trees shouted out that every tree should close their leaves, with the intention that only a few branches and leaves would be cut out. The cutting of the leaves is important especially at the place without natural leaf-fall in winter in order to get rid of diseases and pest. At that time, the famous tree said to the little tree, “Now is the time to surrender”. The little tree saw the famous tree open all leaves and branches, so all of the diseases and pests shown. The little tree was confused about what it should do. With full of worries and fear, the little tree opens all its leaves and branches. At harvest time, both of the trees produce big and sweet fruits.
