life is an echo

life is an echo

A small child became angry with his mother and started shouting, “I hate you.”
After that he ran away from home in fear of being reprimanded.
He went to the hills and started screaming, “I hate you, I hate you.” And the same voice echoed, “I hate you, I hate you.” He heard the echo for the first time in his life.
He got scared and ran to his mother for protection and said, there is a bad child in the valley who screams, “I hate you, I hate you.”
His mother understood everything and told her son to go to the hill and shout again, “I love you, I love you.”
The little child went there and cried, “I love you, I love you.” And the same voice echoed.
And thus the child learned a lesson from this incident – our life is like an echo. We get back only what we give.
