Although he was a stubborn man, villagers were very happy to see the old man. Because nobody  visited their village recently. Everyone greeted him a nice smile and gave feast without looking more or less at their home. Village people were very hospitable.They ate and drank all together. They said that he was a stranger who came a long way. Villagers even arranged a house by saying that you have no place to stay.He could not understand why the people treated him so well and he started to think...

He liked the way the villagers treated him well. No one had ever treated him well before. Everyone treated him badly. Losing his mother and father at a young age caused him to have a bad childhood. 

But doing good deeds to him in this village gradually made even the grumpy old man a good person. Because where there is love, there would be no evil.

For this reason, he began to behave well and lovingly around the villagers. He made friends and had nice chats with them. Even the children of the village loved this old man because he told some interesting fairytales and spent some nice time with the children. Moreover, when the villagers need a recomendation or an opinion about something, they saw him to consult and take his advice. One day the villagers gathered together and went near him to ask for his opinion and take his advice about an issue.

And they knocked on the old man’s door. When he saw the people living in village, he felt very happy and  asked how to help them . One of them explained the situation to the old man: "Once upon a time ,there was a young man living in the village .He couldnt get on well with the people in the village and got very angry to this situation . One day , as he got so angry that he built a house in the forest and started living there.Time to time ,he has showed his anger toward to us  by blocking our water source flowing into the forest .We could’t find   a solution to this situation for years,We have tried to talk with him but it didn’t work. Could you help us?" The old man promised to help the  man in the forest and the people in the village because he knew that living as a bad person does not bring happiness, but he didn't have any idea how to do it.

He was thinking, but he could not get out of the work. Then he thought of playing a game with her. At night, he began to walk around his house in the forest, scaring her. One night, he made scary noises around the house. The other night appeared to the man in a ghostly white veil opposite the open window. Since the man was getting scared, he would ask the villager for help, but how would he ask? He didn't have the face to ask for help because he had always mistreated the villager. The old man, who was sure that the man living in the forest was afraid, went to him in the daytime and introduced himself and said that loneliness and evil is not a right behavior at all, and that if something bad happens to him when he is alone, no one can help him.

The young man started thinking about what the old man said and finally fell asleep exhausted and disappointed. In the middle of the night he saw a strange dream... A horrifying ghost visited him... It was the ghost of the future who wanted to show him what his life will be like without kindness and love. He saw himself as an old, lonely and helpless man without any friends. He was seriously ill and nobody was there to help him... He felt as if he was suffocating and woke up trembling and scared...

When he woke up after that terrible nightmare , he decided to change his behavior and stop blocking the source of water.The young man came back to the village   and apologised to the villagers for his cruelty, querrels and selfishness. The young man also thanked the old man for showing him that life without kindness and love, without any friends is sad and worthless. Thanks to the ghost of the future from the bad dream last night, he understood that life is beautiful but only if you are generous, good , helpful for other people and have a lot of friends. Since that time he started to lead a new life….
