Many years ago, a resident of Tver Peter Ivanovich Pavlov read in magazine an interesting story about how an ordinary tree saved person from a fatal illness. It happened so …
He helped the tree – the tree helped him
Once Ignatius (as the author of the story was called) discovered on his palms a slight swelling. Doctors reassured him: they say nothing scary, it will pass. However, the tumor grew until it became clear that she is malignant. Doctors talked about amputating the arm. Shocked by this news, Ignatius could not find a place before operation went to the village. There, in a small house, once passed his childhood.
… The village house was empty for a long time, the once generous garden was running wild, the garden is flooded with weeds. In the front garden, on a completely scorched the sun lonely, a lonely tree grew, and it was clear that it doomed to death. Suddenly the man felt insane pity for this unfortunate tree, and for myself …

Finding an old watering can and a crumpled bucket in the barn, he began to carry in front garden water. However, the land was too dry and not wanted to take moisture. Then Ignatius began punching pits with a crowbar and pour water in them to water the roots. The work progressed very slowly, however, the man did not give up – he dragged water and one by one punched holes in solid, like stone, soil …
Twilight enveloped the earth, the moon rose in a dark sky, and he all continued to walk to the well. Finally, deep in the night, completely exhausted, Ignatius realized that moisture permeated the soil, and then the tree was saved! ..
The man significantly ripped off his sore palm and was incredibly tired. is he he clasped his arms around the tree trunk, buried his forehead in it and froze. Ignatius did not remember how much he stood in an embrace with his saved a tree. He did not want to open his arms and leave. For the first time in the last few days the man was really calm. Has appeared a sense of confidence that everything will be fine with him. Back in city, Ignatius discovered that the cancerous tumor in his palm is larger no, she just disappeared! ..
Gratitude of the forest must be earned
Peter Ivanovich remembered this amazing story when he found himself in a difficult position. The man also suffered from incurable diseases and decided to seek salvation from mother nature. He walked into the forest chose a tree that somehow attracted him, and leaning against the trunk, told the green giant about his sorrows.

Pavlov did this many times, sometimes he even slept in forest more often, trying to make friends with maple or pine. But relief for some reason did not come.
Years passed in an attempt to find a common language with nature. Ailment overpowered, medications could not help, the man’s body was aging. Own He perceived a serious condition already as a norm. Walk into the forest it became more difficult, and Ivan Petrovich was disappointed in these hiking …
But then one day he was going to go fishing. Passing through the forest the road to the river met Pavlov with heaps of garbage, felled and burnt trees, “placers” of disposable tableware and glass containers, empty tetrapacks and many more other “surprises”.

Oppressed by this landscape, Ivan Petrovich finally went out to the river. On the many fishermen sat on the shore, some came here with their families. However, rubbish and plastic bottles lay everywhere. swaying on the surface of the water … Any desire to fish with Pavlov gone.
Pondering what to do now, the man wandered aimlessly along shore. Then, having pulled a plastic bag out of his pocket, he set about silently collect garbage. For a while this venture seemed to him meaningless: well, what can be done with two hands and with one package, when is such a dump around?
Then things went smoothly. Plastic bottles Ivan Petrovich crushed and rammed so that they did not take up much space, and glass container “buried” in the ground. I took the paper to the old fireplace and there burned. Among the trash, there were many empty packages that the man here but let it go.
Pavlov’s initiative did not go unnoticed. Many shouted that he is engaged in nonsense, however, voluntary assistants were also found. IN As a result, a decent area of the forest was cleared.

And what relief did Ivan Petrovich feel after that! In my heart It became calm and easy. He did not regret about the fishing that went wrong, but I was glad that I was able to help the forest and some part of it became cleaner! .. Arriving home, the man noticed that he was feeling unusually good: habitual pains disappeared somewhere, and there is no need to drink with handfuls tablets. At night, he slept like a baby.
After some time, Ivan Petrovich again came to the river and with joy made sure that there is clean. Then he moved on and, finding trashy place, began to clean it. Such unusual hikes have become for men the meaning of life. They gave him strength, and many years of illness step by step retreated away. But that’s not all, in the life of Ivan Petrovich miraculous changes for the better began to take place – at home, at work, in monetary matters. And also – the beloved woman appeared …

That’s how he understood and felt with all his heart that trees are living things, responsive, kind and grateful. Make them your friends, says Ivan Petrovich, – and your life will become much brighter, more harmonious and happier. The question is different – how to make them your friends? Only sincere love and real concern for these wise, omnipotent and at the same time such defenseless creatures of our planet …
