A poor farmer had a friend. His friend was famous for planting the apple tree.

One day, his friend gave him a young apple tree and told him to plant it. The farmer was happy with the gift, but he did not know where to plant it.  He was afraid that if he planted the tree in one of his fields, his neighbors would come at night and take some of the apples. If he planted the tree near his house, his children would take the fruit. Finally he planted the tree in his wood. But without sunlight(阳光) and good soil (土壤), the tree soon died.

Later the friend asked the farmer why he planted the tree in such a poor place. "Is it　 different? " the farmer was angry and then told what he had thought.

"Yes," said the friend, "but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit. Now you not only　 rob(抢夺) everyone of the fruit, but also you destroy (毁掉) a good apple tree !"

A Lesson

Joe was a farmer. His farmland was so poor that he hadn't had good harvests for years.

"If God lets me control the weather, then everything will get better," he complained. "I'm a farmer. I know what's the best for crops to grow than God does."

God told him that he would control all kinds of weather. "Let's see what your crops will grow like." God said.

On hearing this, Joe was excited and immediately shouted, "Sunny!" Suddenly the clouds went away.

He was pleased and shouted again, "Rainy!" The sky was covered with dark clouds right away, then after a while, heavy rain poured down.

Watching the seeds growing bigger and bigger and becoming crops, Joe felt much satisfied. Then, the harvest season came.

He went to the field to get his crops. But his heart suddenly sank（下沉）when he found the strong crops even hadn't grown a grain. He was quite confused and started to cry. Once again, God heard him.

"Do you want to know why you still don't get the good harvest you want?" God asked. "That's because you never asked for wind, rainstorm, snow and ice, or anything that could make the air fresher and the roots stronger. Without strong roots, of course the crops won't grow any fruit. "

After he realized this, Joe asked God to take back the power. It turned out that only through life's challenges would we reap（收获）the fruit of life.
