VALUE OF TRUST - RABBIT AND PARTRIDGE

      Long ago, a partridge was living in the hollow of a tree in a forest for a long time. One day. it had become scarce in that part of the forest and he had to go to some other place in search of food. He found a field of ripe rice at a long distance. He stayed there for many weeks and didn't return back. Soon he became healthy by eating rice grains.




 Meanwhile, a rabbit started living in the partridge's nest finding it empty. After some time, the partridge returned and found the rabbit in his nest. "Who are you? What are you doing in my house," the partridge asked angrily. "It is mine and I have been living here for many days." said the rabbit. They started quarrelling with each other. At last, they decided to solve their problem with someone.




A forest cat had been watching them for quite some time. He had an eye on them and was waiting for an opportunity to kill them both. With an aim to fulfil his wish, the cat volunteered, "Hey folks, what is the problem? Shall I be of some help here?" Although both the partridge and the rabbit knew the cat to be their enemy, in their misunderstanding, they approached the cat. As they neared the cat, the cat was ready to pounce on them. With a growl, the cat started to attack the rabbit and the partridge. Both the friends ran in different directions to save their lives. But his sharp paws and teeth will kill both the partridge and rabbit.


Moral: TRUST NOT THE UNTRUSTABLE.

Pintu watched with wonder at the ease with which the lumberjacks split large logs. He was observing their work. When a lumberjack had inserted a wedge to split a log, the bell rang to indicate their lunchtime. The lumberjacks set aside their work and went away for their lunch.         Pintu ran to the log with the wedge stuck deep inside. His curiosity increased. He left his hand inside the split end and tried to pull the log apart. Nothing happened. So Pintu decided to pull out the wedge and see what happened. In his anxiety, Pintu did not notice that he was sitting across the log and that his tail was wagering in the split of the log.  The moment Pintu pulled out ...

THE WOLF AND THE RAT - MORAL STORY

      In a borough under a banyan tree lived a colony of rats. They were living happily there. They got plenty of food around them. The banyan tree was so big and strong that the rats we nicely sheltered.                Once, a cunning wolf happened to come that way. He saw the fleshy rats running here and there across the banyan tree. He thought to himself, "I would love to eat these rats. They are such easy prey." The wolf started limping as if his leg was hurt. Unknowing of the wolf's trick, the leader rat came to the rescue of the wolf. He asked the wolf, "Hello friend, what is your problem? Why are you limping?" The wolf replied in a weak voice, "I have hurt my leg so bad. I cannot hunt for food. If you can help me till I cure, I shall be very thankful to you." "Stay close, I shall send food for you every day through my friends," consoled the leader rat.             From then onwards, the leader ra...
