“Papa, tell me a story tonight.”
“OK, baby …”
“Long time ago; there was a little man. His name was John. He wanted to ride a horse so that he can travel to the place that he wants. Therefore, He bought a beautiful and strong horse. He was really happy with his horse. He always played, and had fun with his horse. His horse was a friend of him. He loved and proud by having this horse. And, John became a hard working man. He always traveled with his horse to everywhere. And his horse can carried heavy and many things on his back. The horse always obeyed what his owner wants. John was really tired but, his horse helped him and was enjoying working for John.
But, when the horse had old, he can’t help John in his work. He was so old and weak. John also didn’t have much time to care of his horse. One day, John was thinking about his horse. “This horse is so old and weak; he is not useful now. And, also I have to give food him every day. He just spend my time and money.” So, John was leaved his horse on the way. The horse understood, at the same time, he felt very sad. He was felt so cold and crying. And, the other traveling horse was heard his crying sound.
“Why are you crying?”, he asked.
“I was really tried hard for my owner. I was very active to help him. However, he doesn’t want to care and love me, because I am old and can’t work for him, now.” he replied and his eyes were wet with tears.”
“Papa …, why does you tell me this story every night? What is that mean?”
“My dearest baby, would you leave me alone, when I become an old man?” When I can do nothing for you, will you forget my loves?”
“Oh! No, Daddy. I will love you and remember your loves forever. I will never leave you alone.”
“Thank you, my dear baby. May God Bless you.”
