A Father's Love

Once a young son and an old father went for a walk in a garden. The old father told the son that he was tired now and wanted to sit for a while, after which the father and son sat down on a bench in the park. Then the father's eyes went to a tree in front of him. There he saw a bird sitting on a tree branch.

After looking at the bird for a while, the father asked his son, "Son, what is it?" The son answered the father's question and said, "He is a parrot." After a few minutes the father again asked his son, "What is that?" After this the son said with a slightly louder voice, "I have told you before that it is a parrot."

After a while the father again repeated the same question and showed the bird sitting on the branch of the tree what it was. Now the son got angry. He shouted and said to his father, “Dad, do you not understand anything or do you not hear anything? How many times have I told you that he is a parrot, yet you are being asked so many times. After all, what do you have to do knowing this?"

Listening to the son, the old father said very softly and in a low voice, "Son, you know when you were about four or five years old, you asked this question to me twenty-five times and you looked so sweet to me while asking this question. That I would give a kiss on your cheek to your every question and answer you saying that he is a parrot. But you got angry only after asking me 3 times.
