THE STORY

           So , there were 2 men in a town. The two men had their well-built houses , they were both settled. They were neighbours. One was aged 20 years , and other was around 54 years. So by now, you have understood that one was of the present generation and the other was of the previous generation.

They both had a garden infront of their house. Both of them planted a tree. The young man used to water the Plant daily , nourish it with fertilizers and care about it so much !! 

The old man used to water the plant thrice a week , didn't give it much attention but just treated it as a plant.

One day , the weather got so opposed , it was raining all-over in the town . Thunderstorms, and much more. The next day morning, the young man comes out to see his plant Roots parted out of the ground. He then looks onto to the other side to see the old man's plant survive. He was taken into a moment of astonishment.

The man walked up to the old man to ask how his plant survived the heavy rain , the old man replied " You were the only who was taking care of the plant daily , you watered it , nourished it and gave it everything it needed. So, your plant had nothing to Search for and as likely it's roots didn't go deep down to search for something it needed. My plant was minimally short of everything, so it's roots digged deep down to search for water and so. Thus , as my plant's roots were deep into the soil, it withstood the rain and your's  didn't". 

This is the idea to be followed.  The story is applicable to relations.

It shouldn't be always you in investing in a relationship, no matter what. If the investment is mutual , it will be a healthy one !! 

Let the other person also get into it ,it should not be you or one person always.
