The only fruit!


This papaya tree has only one fruit! That is how I felt when I first noticed it. 

As I walked away, I remembered that the stem bears the marks of other fruits it might have borne in the past. 

Even it it did not bar any except this only one, it is still a tree with a fruit. 

A papaya tree becomes a tree fully only when it bears a fruit. 

As humans, we have a message to ponder upon!

A fruit is given away by the tree for others to relish!

As humans what we give away through our acts of kindness is what reveals our identity !

It is when others feel blessed by our presence and doing, we truly become fully human!
