The Story of Dad's Palms

Story, story, once upon a time. There was a man, whose name is Kunle. Kunle was a recent graduate and had just applied for a job in a Bank and he was invited for the interview and got employed the same day to his surprise. He was invited to start the following week, but the Lead interviewer who was also the Bank Manger shook his hands and observed his palms were soft.
He decided to ask him what his parents do for a living and he said his father is a farmer. He told him to go home and look at his father's palms and when he comes on Monday, he should tell him what he observed.
On getting home, he broke the news of the successful interview to his boss, and asked to see his dad's palms; then he noticed all the stretches, marks, scars and the tough skinned palms his dad has.
He then narrated the incident to his dad, and at that moment his dad sighed and his dad told him that him the story of how he has been struggling to make sure he came out with distinction and never lack in school. The boy told his father that he was sorry not to have seen it earlier or appreciated any of it.
The father prayed for him and blessed him and on Monday, he went to start his work and his boss called him into the office and asked him: what did he observe in his father's palms? He said that it was hard unlike his palms that were soft.
THE MORAL OF THE STORY: We should appreciate our parents and ALL who went through alot to make us comfortable and successful in school.
