I read a beautiful story about children growing up.

Gautam Budhha was walking by a field when he saw a farmer toiling away. He stood there watching him work. After a while the farmer noticed him.

Budhha smiled at him and asked what he was doing. The farmer said that he was growing grains.

Budhha asked him what was he doing to achieve that. The farmer replied that he was digging soil, removing weeds, watering the earth, adding manure.

As the farmer spoke he realized that he actually didn’t do much to grow grains. He just created favorable conditions. Actually growing was done by Mother Nature.

It’s the same with children – nature makes them grow, parents’ job is to create favorable conditions. :-))
