Good stories that will make you smile...
... Little lotus floats up, waiting for love ...
A large branch was broken across the top of the pond. A red-winged dragonfly rested on a branch that had not yet sunk. The water surface rippled slightly with the shaking of the tip of the branch. An old woman wearing a palm-leaf straw hat sits by the pond. One hand firmly held on to the branch. One hand reached out and plucked a lotus bud to prepare for giving alms to the monks this morning.
"Look at your aunt, she's healthy." Returning from sending the computer. The school brought it in for repairs. I saw that the atmosphere was good. So I stopped to sit and talk with the government official's uncle at the house. On the patio there was a wooden plank placed on a short log to serve as a place to sit and chat. With coffee cups and kettles prepared to welcome visitors every morning.
"Oh.. Don't worry about him. That leg. Stronger than the girls. I saw that my grandchild would take me to Suphanburi. Two or three days." He said with a smile and picked up a coffee mug and filled it with hot water from the kettle standing next to him before shouting up to the house. "Little girl, I'll come down and fetch water from the pond and put it in a jar in front of the house for Uncle. too"
"You will have good children and grandchildren, and the old and old will be happy as well." I invited him to continue talking when I saw that he had finished his business from the shouting a moment ago.
“Only this granddaughter can be relied upon. As for the other grandson No matter what you teach, they never listen. So I had to let it go according to the karma it had to accept and learn on its own," Uncle said sadly, but still smiling as usual.
"So there's no way to give orders or teach?"
“Master technician... do you see that water jar in front of the house? Mr. Technician, can we add water to it?”
"Sure. Why not?"
"Take a good look... That jar has a lid on it. And how do you add water to it?”
Stunned, suddenly thinking How can we teach him? If he still isn't open to listening.
... Thinking of the Buddha's words, the lotus is under the water, you shouldn't dwell on it ...
...Closed the earthen jar and the lid. If you want to remember to add just a little water, don't think about it...
... It's like a person's heart is dark because it's closed. Even if someone directs it, they just ignore it...
... Therefore it is worthless to teach and command figuratively if you never open your heart to listen ...
"The monk is coming, uncle. Auntie, aren't you finished yet?" The beautiful niece followed her in front of the house. Din was shocked and trembled when he saw his face. Where did you get this beauty? It must be the goddess giving blessings. What is Acharn's pleading for? Speech sprinkled with the scent of pollen My heart is flying like a bumblebee. Oh Bang Or, I miss the smell of my heart.
"Then sit and talk with him for a while. I'll go help your aunt pick lotus flowers now." After saying that, Uncle walked away. Leaving a granddaughter With the most trustworthy man in the world
"Did you see that Uncle said that he would take Auntie to Suphanburi?"
"Yes.. probably going for a few days."
"So, did you pass through Kanchanaburi?"
"I'm going to stop by and take my aunt to visit Sai Yok Waterfall as well."
"So when driving through Kanchanaburi city I miss you too."
"why"
"How will you think of me forever (Kan)?"
