Different Seasons...
There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge
كان لرجل أربع أبناء أراد أن يعلمهم درس رائع فى الحياة الا يحكموا على الامور بسرعة و لا تكن نظرتهم سطحية
things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look
لذلك أرسلهم الى مكان بعيد حيث توجد شجرة كبيرة و طلب من كل منهم أن يصف الشجرة له
at a pear tree that was a great distance away.
فذهب الابن الاكبر فى فصل الشتاء و ذهب الثانى فى الربيع و الثالث فى الصيف و الاصغر فى الخريف
The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in
summer, and the youngest son in the fall.
عندما عادوا من رحلتهم البعيدة جمعهم معا و طلب من كل منهم ان يصف ما رأه
When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe
what they had seen.
فقال الاول ان الشجرة كانت قبيحة و جافة بينما قال الثانى أنها كانت مورقة و خضراء
The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.
The second son said no it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
و تعجب الابن الثالث قائلا انها مغطاة بورود ذات رائحة جميلة و تبدو غاية فى الروعة و الجمال
The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so
sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.
و أنهى الابن الاصغر الكلام معلقا انها كانت مليئة بالثمار و الحياة
The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping
with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.
فشرح الاب مفسرا كلامهم جميعا انه صحيح لان كل منهم ذهب فى موسم مختلف
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they
had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.
لذلك لا يجب ان تحكم على شجرة أو شخص فى موسم او موقف بعينه
He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season,
and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come
from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.
لذلك اذا أستسلمت فى وقت الشتاء فستخسر كل جمال الربيع
والاحساس الرائع فى الصيف و الحياة المثمرة التى فى الخريف
If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring,
the beauty of your summer, the fulfillment of your fall.
Moral lessons:
الحكمة الأساسية
Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
لا تدع الالم الذى يحدث لك فى موسم معين يجعلك تخسر الفرح فى الاخرين
Don't judge life by one difficult season.
لا تحكم على الحياة فى موقف او مظهر واحد
Persevere through the difficult patches and better times are sure to come some time or later.
حاول ان تعبر فوق المواقف الصعبة و الظروف المرة لان الله يعد لك أوقات احلى و حياة أفضل
