Important part in our body

                                                    Important part in our body

Long ago, there lived a mother with her son. As her son is growing,mother asked her son "Which is important part in our body according to you?". Son replied its the ears. Without them, we can not listen to anything. He said this listening to chirping of birds.
Mother was not satisfied by his answer. She said it is not the correct answer. She said she will ask the question after some time. Likewise, one day mother again askd the question. This time son replied it is the eyes. Without them we cant see anything.
This time also,mother was not satisfied with the answer. She said there are many blind people living in world. It is not the correct answer. Son thought for every answer , mother tells the same thing. But she is not telling correct answer.
Likewise, days passed. Son's grandfather died in village.  Mother went with her son for the funeral of her father. When they reached, all relatives had gathered. They all engrossed in grief. They were crying. At this moment, mother asked her son which is the important part in our body?
Son was shocked. At this time, mother is asking the silly question. By seeing his silence, mother replied " You had given many answer. But I was not satisfied. Today I will tell you correct answer. Its our shoulders. Shoulder can help people to lean on them and take out their grief.  I wish you get true friends who can allow you to lean on their shoulders and can share your problems".
Hearing this, son understood what his mother is telling true.

  1. nice story, I did not know the answer until I read upto the end. However rarely do people lend their shoulders to others to lean on as their own problems boggs them down!
