S.A.T. Style Reflective Essay: "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring"

In the film "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring," what lesson do you think the monk is trying to teach his young student? Reflectively relate this learning process to your own personal experience.
    
     The film "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring" is about a monk teaching his young student who was playing with animals by tying a rock aroung them. The monk who saw the young student play with animals ties a rock around the young student's waist at night. The young student begged to forgive him. So the monk said to the young student "Find every animals that you had played with and untie the rocks from them. If any of them die, you will have to have that rock forever in your mind." But when the ypung student goes to the stream to untie the animals, he found the fish dead and become upset. He feels better when he sees the frog alive, but starts to cry when he saw the snake dead, bleeding.
     The monk was trying to teach the young student a lesson. I think the lesson was ' respect the nature', 'consider your your actions' and 'life is always important no matter how small or big it is.'
