A man teaches his four sons not to judge quickly by sending them to observe a pear tree in different seasons. Each son describes the tree based on their perspective during their visit, illustrating that their judgments reflect only one part of the tree's life. The man concludes that one should not judge by a single season but appreciate the entirety of experiences, encouraging perseverance and kindness in life.
