There was a farmer who
had three sons.
All of his sons were
very lazy. No one helped his father to work in the field.
No one cared to do any
work. They only ate and slept.
The farmer was very sad
that his sons were lazy.
One day the farmer
became very ill. He called his three sons to tell them something.
“I have a treasure for
you but it is buried in the field. After I die you may dig it up,” the farmer
said then and died.
The three boys went to
the field and dug the ground.
They dug all day trying
to find the treasure, but did not find anything.
Next day they went to
the field again and dug the ground more. But they did not find any treasure.
The boys dug the field
for many days. They did not find any treasure.
Finally, the eldest son
said, “Let us stop digging. We should grow corn in our field.”
So they brought corn
seeds and sowed them in the land they had been digging.
After one month, the
field was full of green corn seedlings.
Three months later, the
plants bore corn and when the corn was ripe, the whole field became bright
yellow.
“This is the treasure
that father gave us,” they said happily.
“Nothing can be gained
without effort.”

The
Treasure in the field
Today, I reading “The Treasure in the field” . This is story
that easy to understand. When I read about it, I can understand immediately.
The reasoning that I choose this story because that is the same life of many people
that lazy. I can get idea from this story. In story have idea for manage their
life that better.
In story is about
method that father give to his sons. Because of his sons lazy, his father said
“I have a treasure for you but it is buried in the field. After I die you may
dig it up” I think, There aren’t treasure in the field but his father want to
change life of his sons that lazy and never help his father. When they dug
field to find the treasure, they don’t find the treasure. Although that don’t
find the treasure, they know method to change their life that without lazy.
From this story tell
about “Nothing can be gained without effort”. Because his father don’t have
treasure in the field. The sons don’t have treasure but they have field. When
they try changing their life that lazy after father die. I think if they don’t
try, they aren’t successful. I can get knowledge about this to change my life
is the better. When I lazy, I am not successful.
