Once there lived a lazy man in a village. His only source of income was a mango tree, which was planted in the backyard of his house.
One day, one of his relatives came to his house. At breakfast, lunch, and dinner, only mangoes were served to the relative. He got fed up with this and thought of a plan.
At night, when the lazy man was sleeping, the relative quietly woke up, cut down the tree, and fled away. The next day, when the man saw that the tree was cut down, he cried a lot.
After a few years, the same relative again came to his house. By now, the man had worked and prospered. His condition had improved. He thanked the relative for making him realize his mistake.
