There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his son to teach not to judge things too quickly, so he sent them to look for a pear tree. The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in autumn. When they returned, he asked to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent and twisted. The second said it was covered with green buds. The third son disagreed; he said it was the most beautiful thing, laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet. The last son disagreed and said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfilment. Then the man told, “You saw the same tree but in different seasons. So you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season. The essence of pleasure, joy and love can only be measured in the end, when all the seasons are up.”
Moral : Don’t be judgemental.
