I, too, have seen this one before.
I, too, have seen this one before. I loved it then and I love it now. That youngster taught his parents what real love is, because they had never thought about the fact that they were getting older even as they were preparing his wooden bowl.

Very touching.
I remember times when I was less than kind to the elderly grandfather who raised me. Fortunately I grew up and was able to become more caring and considerate before he died. It wasn't enough, but it was the best I could do in the time he had left.

how true
this was absolutely wonderful and i loved it. I'm glad you shared. I was so flabbergasted as i read that people sometimes only think of themselves. children always surprise because they know more than we think they do and haven't yet learned to be so unconsciously rude. :-) have a nice day

Mariaki
I had read this story some time back. It was touching then and just as touching this morning. Given I am currently helping my failing mother-in-law, it was also very timely. Thank you for sharing it with us.
