As we know communication is primary tool which can disclose feelings that we have in our inside world. Our tongue is key of our soul and tongue is means of communication, therefore, i wanted to reflect this situation through my following “metaphorical” story.
Once upon a time, in faraway dessert, rose and cactus lived together. Rose was gorgeous and a little bit boastful with its beauty. Doing thus, it was natural not to taking consideration cactus in all times. But cactus always cared about feelings and experiences of her neighbor. Even cactus treated rose with courtesy and respect, regardless rose’s sarcasms. But rose make a complain that she is living next to ugly cactus.
One sweltering summer, dessert became dry and there was no water for the plants. As a result magnificent rose quickly got wilt, and then she recognized that if she didn’t ask for help from cactus, she definitely would disunite her beauty and even might lose her life consequently. Looking to the cactus, she was flourishing and brightening, ashamed rose was compelled to ask for help:
– please, could you give me water if you have?
– yes of course, there is no problem.
-i am surprised that you agreed so quickly even I hatred you with my nasty attitude so many times.
– come rain or shine, I don’t want to separate such kind of neighbor.
– do you think our communications in the past give rewarding experiences?
-yes, i don’t take serious what others say about me, others mock me, insult me like you. But it seems difficult for them to understand everything is not same as they are showed. So, i would recommend you “don’t judge book by its cover”.
-your words can responsible for smelting my heart, please, apologize me; Ii had never known existence of beauty under such a hideous look.
– Beauty isn’t described related to outlook. Real beauty is when others need to assist, and even you can afford to help with only your words, their situation might be turned from worst to the best. When i reply you “there is no problem” you were surprised why i agreed as soon as you requested. Thus, even one word can describe whole of your world.
Real beauty is your soul, and you are able to disclose this beauty only with your own words. That’s why, only words proof how beautiful you are. So, in every communication that you have, is the another chance to exposing your real world.
