THE GOLDEN DEER - MORAL STORY

In a forest, valley lived a variety of strange deer. They had attractive golden skin. The skin was so shiny that it looked like real gold. Abu was a hunter who lived in a nearby village.

He had heard plenty of stories about the golden deer. He wanted to catch at least one such golden deer. Abu roamed all across the forest in search and finally found them grazing in a remote valley. He set some traps and waited. When the golden deer herd came that way, one deer fell in the trap and got caught. At once, the deer shouted, "There are traps in this area. Everybody leave." On hearing this caution all other deers ran away from that place. However, the deer's brother and sister did not leave.

They started mourning, "How can we leave you dear brother? We shall all stay together till the end of life." Abu, who was witnessing all this, felt very emotional and set the golden deer free. Abu had learnt the value of true love and affection.

Moral: TURE LOVE HAS NO EQUALS !!!

They all got caught in the net. They were all very afraid of what would happen next. There was one wise pigeon. He said, "Friends, we should not be afraid. We have to be courageous. Let us join together. It is time for us to be united. We should fly all at once. Let us flap our wings in unison." Saying this, the smart pigeon started to flap its wings.
