Dreams

There is a little poor young man, who doesn't have any friends, relatives and money. He is always very hungry and he begs for living. One day, he sees a dead bird on the road, he feels pity for the bird and he helps to bury the dead bird properly.

That night, the bird comes into his dream. The bird tells him to dig down under the tree, which is in front of his broken wooden house. The young man wakes up from the dream and decides to give it a try.

He digs down the tree and finds a lot of gold coins! The young man becomes very rich now. But he is also wasteful. He buys a lot of things but throws them later after a few days. Soon, he spends all his money and he is poor again.

That night, he has another dream. The bird tells him to dig around the land behind his house.

Thinking that he might find another treasure, he starts to dig around the land. After digging for three days, he finds nothing. He is really tired and disappointed. that night, he dreams the bird again. The bird says it is time now to puts down the paddy seeds on the land that he dug.

The young man feels angry with the bird. But since he has cleared and dug the land, he thinks that he might as well plant the paddy. So he works very hard everyday, waters the paddy, puts fertilizers, etc.

Six months later, he sells the paddy and gets the money. This time, he knows that this money comes with his hard work. So he spends it properly, and he continues to plan new paddy.

The young man is thankful to the bird.
