THE CUNNING BLUE JACKAL MORAL STORY

  The story goes like this. In a forest there was a heavy fight to choose a king. The old lion king had fallen sick and was about to die. There were many younger ones who were fighting among one another to capture the throne as king of the forest. 




A poor jackal was very hungry. So, he went in search of food to a nearby village. He saw a big pot kept in the backyard of a weaver's house.

He fell into the pot of blue dye thinking that it was a pot of waste food. The jackal turned blue. The jackal looked at itself in the river water and thought, "Well, let me try to scare other animals in the forest."




When the jackal entered into the forest, all animals got frightened for real. The jackal took its chance and started to command them, "Look fellow creatures, I am the new king. From now on you shall bring food and water for me daily. Whatever I say shall be the rule in this forest." The animals took turn to serve their new king. 

Once, there was a heavy rain in the forest. There was loud thunders and bright lightning. All animals ran to their new king and pleaded, "Hey mighty blue king, save us from the rain." The jackal replied, "Don't worry poor animals, I shall stop the rain." When the jackal came out rainwater poured and the jackal got wet. Slowly, the blue dye got dissolved in the rainwater and the original colour of the jackal appeared. When the jackal could not stop the rain it started to say, "Sorry my folks," but before it could continue all other animals shouted, "you cunning jackal..." The jackal had to run away to save its life.

THE SNAKE AND THE GREEN FROG - MORAL STORY

          It had just rained and the forest was nourishing with water everywhere. There was no shortage of food for every animal.  A snake was swimming in a pond. It had an eye on the plentiful fish in the pond. As it was about to catch a fish, the other fish saw it and pecked at it, biting and annoying it. The snake could not catch the fish. The disappointed snake swam to the shore and was about to leave the place. Just then it saw a frog croaking nearby. So it went to the frog and asked, "What is the justice in the act of the fish.        I was about to catch a big fish, but the other fish chased me off." The frog thought for a while and replied, "Of course, it is just. When the fish comes to you, you can eat it. But, when you go to the fish the fish have right to chase you off." Saying this, the frog leapt away saying to itself, "Oh God! I've been lucky today to have escaped." Moral: EVEN THE MIGHTY ERRS  !!! **** **** ****
