Speeding Father

Once upon a time there was a family of four Mother-Father, Son-Daughter, they lived happily in a quiet some village, father was a farmer, mother was a housewife and children still in school, the kids were bright in study and always kept their family pride high. They had a bullock-cart, buffaloes and goats to help with their daily needs. It was a happy family. The parents expected to educate their kids in a good education institution after schooling in city, but had no money to do so.

There was a bumper crop in the farmer’s field this year and he had gain lot compared, to yesteryears. So the farmer decided to buy a two wheeler for himself and family to drive between village and city. But he rode the bike very fast zipping across the roads, the mother was much concern about his speed, she needed to slow him down but was in vain to pacify the speed.

One fine day the father was riding across the road, he met his son he stopped by and his son asked why do you ride so fast, he replied life is very short need to cover the road as max as possible in short time, next he met his daughter, he replied to her nobody can beat me in speeding around, next he met his wife, he replied to her I want to earn lot of money so running around very fast to earn it. Next he met GOD he asked why are you speeding so much, do you love me so much, don’t you think the people you left behind are important than me. He nodded and sped across, he stopped for a while had a thought and returned back to the same road, and found the GOD his SON DAUGHTER and WIFE vanished.

He woke up from a bad dream and sold his bike and was back to his bullock-cart.
