A Nature’s Lover & the Selfish Family

    Every member of the family was busy in arrangements of the party. Children, grandchildren and friends of Tarank were decorating the garden of his house at his 60th birthday.
Tarank was a businessman who was a nature lover. He announced at his last year’s birthday to distribute his property and assets among his children on his 60th birthday. It was a major reason of happiness in the family.
Tarank came late as usual from the office. He was astonished at the decoration and the feast prepared that night. He had never seen that kind of welcome on any other occasion.
After celebration there were some special lines presented by the family to Tarank. Those were..

Feel the best
As your time is to rest,
One must pass the crown
Before the skin gets brown.

Allow others to rule
Save your limited fuel,
Make others feel good
Before returning to wood.

All the friends laughed loudly at him. His wife seemed to be a neutral person singing in the tone of the family. All the children and grandchildren were eagerly waiting for his announcement.
Tarank smiled. He finished his meal and stood in the middle of the garden. He also sang some lines..

God is great!
Who has abolished my threat,
Giving new birth at this age
Absolutely, today is a new page.

Where friends are found to laugh
Wife is no more a better half,
Children pretend to be innocent
I’ll live now onwards to be content.

Without looking at any face, Tarank kept all the papers on the serving table and started dancing. Very limited ones could feel his pain that evening.
Next morning, Tarank picked only necessary things and left home. His family tried to stop him but he disagreed.

After all, Tarak was a nature lover. He started living in the outskirts of the city. He relished the environment of forest among animals. He was collecting different kinds of seeds, herbs, shrubs and barks. He planted a lot around his Tree house.
Gradually, many kinds of birds, animals and a group of monkeys became his good friends. He made the surrounding very beautiful and developed.

One morning, when Tarank went to collect fruits in the forest. A group of people came to enjoy a birthday party. All were disguised in weird dresses and makeup. It was a theme based party and they chose the clean garden grown by Tarank.
Children came to enjoy, soon started plucking fruits and leaves. Women plucked beautiful flowers and made tiaras. Some of them threw pouches & garbage here and there. Within minutes, the place seemed as mess.
While playing, the ball hit very hard to a monkey. instead of keeping calm, children began to tease monkeys.

Monkeys were already angry at the odd behaviour of people. They got chance to take revenge. They spoiled their food, sweets, pastries and juices. They snatched toys of children. They threw twigs and stems on them.
Meanwhile, Tarank came back with fruits and seeds collected from the forest. He observed everybody and made a gesture towards monkeys.
Monkeys stopped at once. People were shocked to see how monkeys obeyed him promptly. They recognised that he was Tarank, their own relative who could spoil their party. For whom, it was easy to make their fun with the help of monkeys.

Everyone presented in the party felt ashamed at their past and recent attitude. They apologized and requested Tarank to return home.

But Tarank remained silent. He distributed fruits among them. He stood again in the mid and started singing..

Whole world is yours
Leave this piece of land,
Here peace along with
The care is in trend.

Throw away the fake mask
Breathe in simplicity,
Here we all are one
Unity is gifted in our diversity.
