Tej Kohli Family

Tej Kohli values his family above everything. Below is an account of what Tej kohli feels for his family, in his own words:

"I consider myself a very lucky person. I have been born in a wonderful family with quite good set of talents. Those two factors - the family in which one was born and the talents that one was given at the time of his/her birth - are probably the two most important factors determining person's life road and it's success. And both of these factors are outside one's control. I consider myself lucky because both of these factors have been given to me by God through my parents. I've been raised in a family which enforces highest moral standards and currently I live in a country that offers the greatest opportunities. I'm truly lucky and I feel that I can achieve a lot in my life. I strongly believe, however, that those of us who are fortunate in life (and I don't necessarily mean financially) should help those that are not as lucky as we are."

Tej Kohli tells a beautiful story, almost all of us can relate to.

Once upon a time there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under its shade. He loved the tree and the tree too loved to play with him. Time went by. The little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree everyday. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. "Come and play with me," the tree asked the boy. "I am no longer a kid, I don't play around trees anymore." The boy replied, "I want toys. I need money to buy them." "Sorry, but I don't have money. But you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money." The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad. One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. "Come and play with me" the tree said. "I don't have time to play. I have to work for family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?" "Sorry, but I don't have a house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house." So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!" the tree said. The boy said, "I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?" "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy." So the boy cut the tree truck to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. "Sorry, my boy. But I don't have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you." the tree said. "I don't have teeth to bite" the boy replied. "No more trunk for you to climb on" "I am too old for that now" the boy said. "I really can't give you anything. The only thing left is my dying roots." the tree said with tears. "I don't need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years." the boy replied. "Good! Old tree roots is the best place to lean on and rest. Come, come sit down with me and rest." The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears.

Epilogue:
This is a story of everyone. The tree is like our parent. When we are young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad. When we grow up, we leave them alone and only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy. You may think the boy is cruel to the tree, but this is just a story. In reality, that's how all of us are treating our parents.
