There was a boy...

There was a boy, who wanted to live.
He went to school and did his work.
He had two loving parents.

There was another boy, who didn't care if he lived.
He was forced to go to school and do his work.
He had only one parent.

There was another boy, who wanted to die.
He didn't go to school or do his work.
He had no parents.

When the boys grew up,
The first boy got cancer,
The second boy became a drug addict,
And the third boy was a successful businessman.
All three boys had a son of their own.

So the boy who wanted to live, died from cancer.
The boy who didn't care if he lived, overdosed with his wife.
And the boy who wanted to die, learned to love life.

The first boy's son, had only one parent and was forced to go to school and do his work.
He didn't care if he lived.
The second boy's son, had no parents and he didn't go to school or do his work.
He wanted to die.
The third boy's son, had both his parents and he went to school and did his work.
He wanted to live.
