Love

Once, an old man was sitting on a bench in a garden with his 20 year old son. There was a tree beside the bench. The old man saw a bird sitting on the tree. He asked the son- "what is this?" His son replied- "it’s a crow".

The old man again asked "what’s this"? His son said- "I already told you that it’s a crow". The old man again asked "what’s this"? The son angrily said- "are you deaf or mad, papa? How many times do I have to tell you it’s a crow. Can’t you understand"?

The old man patiently replied- "my dear son, when you were 5 years old, you asked me 174 times the same question  " what’s this?"  and I replied every time with a kiss that, it’s a crow! Now, I asked you 3 times and you were irritated".

NOTE: It’s the difference between the love of parents and love from the  children
