1) Male papayas are often seen as useless since they do not bear fruit like their female counterparts. However, their role is to think and give advice to other plants, which the plants do not often seek.
2) The papayo (male papaya) explains to the mangga (mango) that while bearing fruit is important, those fruits cannot be brought to the afterlife. The mangga then stops bearing fruit.
3) The papayo sees seminarians plucking guavas before they are ripe. While the guava's sisters produce plenty of fruit, the overworked guava can no longer do so due to the demands placed on it.

Rubio their seeds for they know they shall meet their end. Papaya and all other fruit bearing trees are deeply rooted on land for they do not want to leave What pain it is to be called futile. Papayas, especially female this world. A Papayo is a plant not deeply rooted on land for it always papayas, bear fruit and are gems to farmers. Their male counterparts absorb wants to ascend and leave the confinement of this world. Its principle is nourishment from the soil, are watered every day, get proper sunlight and outwardly. yet they do not bear fruit. In the end, they are cut down for their futility. The Papayo once asked Mangga, “What good is it to produce The importance of a fruit-bearing plant is generally seen on its bountiful fruits and yet not be able to bring it to the world hereafter?” capacity to bear fruit. If not, it goes down to the compost pit. It is sad to Mangga pondered on that question and realized that she would indeed not know male papayas’ fate. What we did not know is that male papayas have be able to bring anything to the world hereafter. Thus, Mangga does not a different role compared to that of their female counterparts. There is a bear fruit anymore. Papayo once pitied Guava. It saw Guava being abused reason why they must not be called papayas. Instead, they must rightly be by seminarians. Its fruits are not yet ripe and yet seminarians pluck them. called papayos for obvious reasons: that they are male. But what does Papayo approached Guava and said, “What pain is it to see your fruits being papayo connote even further and deeper? There is a Filipino word pa-payo plucked immaturely. Those people abort a future that could have been also a which means to give advice. A Papayo’s role in the Plant Kingdom is not to fruit bearing Guava like you. They forcibly detach your fruits from you and bear fruit but to think. A tree that stands still, sucks nourishment, gives eat them.” Guava, for your information, has two sisters producing bountiful advice and meditates in peace, that is a Papayo. By its being, it fulfills its sweet guavata beside her. They equally meet the consumption rate of essence. It seems that it is not doing anything, but in reality, it is doing people-eating-guavas. But tragedies came and among the three, one died something! And we can’t see it. And that’s exactly the point! How would a and another gave up bearing good fruit due to its disability. One remains Papayo do its role, i.e., to give advice, if in the first-place plants do not ask? healthy and alive. Thus, it has to fulfill and meet the needs of the people- A Papayo is patiently waiting to give someone an advice. Sadly, no one eating-guavas full-time.

Papayo tries to They do not go asking for advice from a Papayo. They do not seek help persuade her to rest but he is neglected. Guava wants it that way. It is from the one that is thinking anymore for they think that what they are doing difficult to change someone that is already accustomed to what they have and producing are enough. In reality, they are not really happy. Producing been doing from childhood to adulthood. Papayo left her to her own devices fruits is quite tiresome.

A Papayo is silent, still, and steadfast and yet it Among the Plant Kingdom, under the genus of fruit-bearing plants, is happy. It is not doing anything anymore other than meeting its basic Papayo has no significant role fruit production-wise, and yet it is the sustenance for life for it has achieved eudaimonia. It does not want anything happiest! Thus, this is a call to live a life just like a Papayo and not any fruit anymore, happily waiting for a farmer to cut him down and still not feel sad bearing tree.
