The wind and the sun

TIME IS VALUABLE

Anthony was a very lazy boy and always used to postpone things. One day his father called him and made him understand the value of time that one should always do things on time. Anthony promised his father that he would never postpone things. One day, he came to know that he had won the first prize in a singing competition that was held the previous month. He was asked to collect the prize the same day. He didn't care and went to collect the prize the next day. But the prize became useless for him, as it was a ticket to a circus show, which was held the previous day.

HAVE FAITH IN GOD

Once a teacher had a disciple who used to live in a hermitage. One day, the disciple was going somewhere. He hadn't gone too far when suddenly it started raining cats and dogs. He returned and told this problem to his teacher. The teacher said, "You should have faith in god. He will save you from all problems." The disciple obeyed and resumed his journey. He kept reciting the name of God and cleared all the hurdles. Next day, the teacher had to go on the same route. When he reached a deep drain, he doubted whether God would save him or not. The teacher got drowned.

A FOX AND A CRANE
Once a fox and a crane became friends. So, the fox invited the crane to dinner. The crane accepted the invitation and reached the fox's place at sunset. The fox had prepared soup for his mate. But as we all know that foxes are tricky by nature, he served the soup in flat dishes. So, he lapped the crane's share with his tongue, enjoying its taste. But the crane could not enjoy it at all with his long beak and had to get back home hungry. The clever fox felt extremely amused. After a few days, the crane invited the fox to dine in with him. The fox reached his place well in time. The crane gave him a warm welcome and served the soup in a jug with a long and narrow neck. So, the crane enjoyed the soup with great taste using his long beak. The fox's mouth couldn't reach the soup through the narrow neck of the jug. He had to return home hungry. Now he realized that he had been repaid for his behaviour with the crane.
