There was a lovely vegetable patch (菜園). A large tree grew there. Both the patch and the tree gave the place a wonderful look, and they were the pride of the gardener. But no one know that the vegetables and the tree couldn’t stand (忍受) each other. The vegetables hated the tree’s shadow (陰影) , because it left them only just enough light to live. The tree, on the other hand, hated the vegetables because they drank nearly all the water, leaving him just enough to live.

The situation became so serious that the vegetables decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree would die. The tree answered back by not protecting the vegetables from the hot sun, so they began to dry up. Soon the vegetables were really weak, and the tree was drying up.

The gardener wondered why and stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and the vegetables realized that it was better to help each other. They learned how to live in harmony with those around them. So they decided to work together, using both the shade and the water to grow well. After seeing how well they were doing, the gardener gave the best care to the vegetable patch, watering and fertilizing (施肥) it better than any other patch for miles around.

Across from my home, there is a field with two horses in it. It seems that each horse looks like any other far away. But if you get a closer look, you will see the bigger horse is blind.

But if you stand nearby and listen, you will hear the sound of a bell. It is coming from the neck of the smaller horse in the field. It lets the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can follow him.

As you stand and watch these two friends, you’ll see that the horse with the bell is always checking on the blind horse and that the blind horse will listen for the bell and then slowly walk to where the other horse is, so that he will not be left(落下).

When the horse with the bell returns to the barn(畜棚) each evening, he will stop from time to time to look back, making sure that the blind friend isn’t too far behind to hear the bell.
