“I want to know aim of your life,” he asked to a child.
“If you know aim of my life, what you will get?” the child was not interested in him.
“I’ll help you in every possible way to improve you in every direction,” he said to the child.
“Who are you?” the child asked him.
“I’m an angel,” the angel replied.
“My aim is to live a peaceful life,” the child said.
“I’m surprised, don’t you want to be something?” the angel asked.
“I want to be a human being,” the child replied.
“But you’re a human being. Why do you say that you want to be a human being? Please tell me,” the angel was anxious to know.
“I’m told that what should be done, if I do I’m told how to do, if I do as told I’m asked why I obeyed blindly, if I obey in my own way, I’m asked why don’t I tell why I obey in my own way. In addition, this if doesn’t leave me as I’m; I feel quenched by everyone except the wise ones. I don’t like it. I don’t feel I’m a human being. I’ve the feeling that I lack the qualities and virtues of tolerance of being a human. Please tell me how I can become a human being?” the child asked.
“…,” the angel was silent; two drops of wisdom came out of his eyes.
“Please don’t forget that it is easy to be an angel but difficult to be a human. Never forget that it’s also very easy to be inhuman but difficulties are like milestones for making of a human. Never forget that you’re a human and it’ll help you to become what you want to be,” the angel smiled.
Both were looking alike. The angel left his child after telling him the stories of great humans with the hope and made wish that the child will be what he wanted to one day.
