Once a king was riding through his kingdom. In a small village, he saw an old woman working in a field. She looked weak. But she was planting some saplings. The king was eager to know why she was doing that. He rode upto her and asked, “What are you doing, grandma?”
“I am planting mango saplings, my lord,” she replied.
“Don’t you know mango trees take a long time to grow? You may not live to eat the fruit. Then why are you doing this?”
“I know that, my lord. But I do not plant these saplings for myself. I plant them for others. I am sure many people will enjoy the fruit of this tree. Tired travelers will rest under its great branches.”
