A story: Once there was a very rich family. The family included Father, Mother and two sons. Her husband was a very rich person and they all stayed in a big palace. In that city, that was only the biggest palace. They lived very happily for some years. One day her husband died and they have to sell the palace for their comfort. They sold the palace & stayed in a small room. The future of sons was looked by mother. It was mother who took care of the children education. Finally her two sons grown up with highly educated and hold the ability to earn. They were earners for the family. Both of them worked very hard for the family. Mother was very happy to see her sons working hard for the family.
After some days, there were changes in both sons. Mother noticed that they used to come late in the night to the house or stay away from home. They used to leave home very early and come late in the night. Mother was much worried about this. She felt that her sons have gone into bad habits. They are hiding something from her. Mother was very much depressed about this. She was all alone in the house and used to recollect her golden past memories staying in Palace with whole family. She felt that family will continue with the same happiness. But she was wrong. She has seen so much change in their sons. This continued for many months.
Finally, she has decided to question their sons about their change in behaviour. On that day, she was eagerly waiting for their sons. That day both the sons came home in joyful mood. Mother was shocked. They told her to come along with them. She went with them and they have taken to her own big palace where they first used to stay. They said to mother that this is the palace we bought it again.
Mother was very much surprised. She immediately understood that her sons worked very hard even till the late night to buy the palace. She was proud of her sons. She never expected that she would live in the palace again. Thereafter, all of them lived happily in that beautiful Palace. If sons are working hard, that means they are doing something good for the family. Mother's dream came into reality by her loving sons.
