How Many Dollars Do You Earn in One Hour?
When the man returned home wearily, he found his 5-year-old son waiting in front of the door.The boy asked his father:
"Dad, how much money do you earn in one hour?"
Already the man who came home tired:
"This is none of your business." he answered.
Then the child:
"Daddy I want to know please." he replied.
Man:
He replied, "If you want to know, I make $ 20 in an hour."
Thereupon, the boy said to his father:
"So would you lend me $ 10?" he asked. The man got very angry and said:
He said, "I have no money to spare for your stupid toys or the like, go to your room immediately and close your door."
The boy went quietly to his room and closed the door to his room.The man was nervously angry and wondered how this boy would dare such things.After an hour had passed, the man calmed down a little more and thought that he had not asked the boy why he wanted the money. Why did the boy ask for money from him?
Maybe he really needed money. He went upstairs to the boy's room and opened the door. To the child in bed:
"Are you sleeping?" he asked.
Child,
He said "no".
He said, "Take the $ 10 you want. I'm sorry I just mistreated you. But I had a long and tiring day."
The boy cried out with joy:
"Thank you, daddy."
The boy took out other crumpled coins from under his pillow.The boy looked at his father's face and slowly counted the coins.Seeing this, the man got very angry:
"Why do you want money from me when you have money?" said the man.
"But there wasn't enough," said the boy and handing the money to his father:
"Here's 20 dollars for you, CAN YOU TAKE 1 HOUR FOR ME, FATHER?" said the boy.

What do you see when you look at this picture?
Events in life are like this picture. If you don't look carefully, you cannot see the truth. Image deceives people. We must know how to view events from different angles.
The boy did not actually ask for money from his father.
Of course we need money to continue our lives. We also need love. We should make time for our family, for our mother, for our father, for our loved ones.
