Once, there was a woman who looked very sad. Her face was tangled. Her expression tired of holding back tears. Apparently, she just lost her beloved son for ever. On the advice of the people in the village, she met a wise old man on the edge of the forest.

They argued that perhaps the wise old man could help solve the problem. Feeling deeply in love with her dead child, she wished she could meet the wise old man. Traveled a long way quickly.

Upon arriving, she asked, "Master, do you have a magic potion to bring my son back?" The wise old man did not try to chase her away or dispel her because of her unreasonable request.

He just said, "Look for red flowers from home that do not recognize the sadness. After you meet the flower, we will together create a magic potion to revive your son ".

After hearing that, the woman immediately set out to find what the wise old man ordered. On the way, she looked confused. There is not a clue as to where and how the house is. Until one day, she arrived in front of the mansion.

"Perhaps the inhabitants of the house have never known sadness," she said in her heart. After knocking on the door, she said, "I'm looking for a house that never gets sad. Is this the place? "

Her face still shows a sad look. From inside the house, look no less sad face. The landlord replied, "You came to the wrong house." The owner of the house tells of the tragedy of her family. She not only lost a son, but also her husband and her parents because of misfortune. The woman feels very disappointed.

However, she became touched by the Woman story. she thinks, "Who can help someone who is more unfortunate than me?" she decided to stay there and comfort the owner of the house. For a few days, she was with the householder, helping each other-helping to live.

Several weeks passed, the woman felt that the house owner had looked better. Then she set out again to find the next house. But wherever she goes, always meet the sadness of others. Finally, she felt responsible for entertaining everyone she visited. Until finally, she also forgot her sadness.

After some time, she met with the wise old man again, she said "I already understand, there is no magic potion that can make the dead come alive, but we can make people in sorrow forget her sorrow"

The wise old man looks smiling.

very good story, and it is the truth, you can not revive the dead person, you should not forget, you should remember all the good things that you left us, and remember him as a great person, because as always he said "do not die" whoever goes away, who dies who dies "

every soul will surely return to its creator
and be patient in effect the ordeal given

This is the first time i am reading your post and i am impressed. The ability to be there for another in the midst of our pain is the real sacrifice. Helping is really at best when you help someone who might never be able to repay us. Beautifully composed story with deep lessons. Good one. I look forward to more posts. Thank you.

"I already understand, there is no magic potion that can make the dead come alive, but we can make people in sorrow forget his sorrow ..
..... If love can not return you to me in this life, surely love will unite us in the life to come.
