Parable: Branches of Happiness
In a distant land, where the sun shone all the time, and the wind whispered melodies of ancient times, there lived a lonely traveler. He wandered through fields and forests, searching for a place under the sun where he could find joy and peace. Unbeknownst to him, he stumbled upon a beautiful garden full of blooming trees, among which stood an amazing tree. Its branches were covered with deep green leaves, and on them were scattered fruits, sparkling in the sun like jewels.
The traveler, fulfilling his dreams of adventures, forgot about his troubles, and soon his heart was filled with a desire to know the secret of this tree. He approached it, but saw that the fruits were high, out of reach of his hands. He looked around and noticed that a young woman had approached the tree. Her eyes sparkled like stars, and each of her steps was filled with grace. She easily touched a branch and picked one of the fruits without any effort. The traveler watched her movements in admiration, and his mind was suddenly filled with questions.
“How did you manage to reach this fruit?” — he asked, stepping closer. The woman smiled, and the blush on her cheeks lit up everything around. “Happiness, — she remarked, — is like this tree. It bears fruits when we learn to take care of it, water it, and protect it from storms. But happiness is not always accessible, and only those who know how to support it can enjoy its gifts.”
The traveler pondered her words. “But how can I learn?” — he asked, his voice was filled with despair. The woman pointed to the branches of the tree: “Listen to how the wind whispers and how the leaves swirl. Your happiness and joy depend on how you look at the world. If your mind is in the shade, not seeing the light, you will never reach the fruits.”
With each of her words, he felt his soul beginning to thaw. It became clear to him that joy is not just a moment, it is work, it is a state of soul that can be nurtured like a flower. The traveler asked: “What should I do to achieve this happiness?”
“First, admire what you have,” — the woman said. “Appreciate every moment, every glance at the world. Find joy in little things, in each breath of wind, in every ray of sunshine. Then, when you begin to feel gratitude, your heart will be freed from heaviness, and the fruits of happiness will become visible.”
From that day on, the traveler changed. He began to notice the beauty around him: the singing of birds, the gentle aroma of blooming flowers, and the light of the moon reflecting in the lake. He started creating an atmosphere of joy around him, and soon his own heart was filled with the light he had previously searched for with difficulty.
One day, returning to the magical tree, he saw that the fruits were no longer so inaccessible. The branches seemed to bend down to him, revealing their treasures. And now, when he felt joy within himself, he approached the tree and saw that the fruits were ready to be gathered. He smiled, realizing that joy is indeed the fruit that ripens on the branches of happiness.
A little more beauty?
