Cliff Notes:
There were 2 sons.
They wanted their inheritance now.
Their father gave it to them.
One went out and squandered it on women and partying.
He had nothing left to the extent that he desired what the pigs were eating.
The other son stayed faithful to the father and did nothing wrong.
The son who squandered his inheritance came back to the father asking for forgiveness.
The father had a party and slaughtered many fine animals because his son had returned to him.
The other son was mad and said "but I never strayed at all, why no party for me?".
The father is overjoyed that his son has returned and explains that "your brother was lost and now is found" he has sinned but has seen the error in his ways and returned to change his ways and repent.
From that point there are many different interpretations on what the moral of the story actually means depending on what religion is talking about it and out of what bible it was taken.
SIXX AM - Life is beautiful
Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye
Breaking Benjamin - You
give them a listen. Probably totally not what your looking for, but then again I don't know if you even know what your looking for.
