THE THREE FISHES - MORAL STORY

         Long Long ago, there lived three fishes in a pond. They were all friendly and lived happily in the pond. Each fish was different from the other's character. 




       The first was named Goldie, the second was named Whitie, and the third was named Brownie. Goldie was very intelligent and shrewd. Whitie was strong-minded and had a belief in destiny. Brownie was slow and lethargic. Once, Goldie heard two fishermen talking among themselves. The first one said, "This pond is full of fish. We have to come tomorrow and have a good catch." The second one replied, "Yes, my friend. Today, we have had enough fish. Definitely, we shall come tomorrow." Goldie swam fast to her friends and started in an anxious voice, "Dear friends, I heard two fishermen talking among themselves to catch fish in this side of the pond tomorrow. We have to leave this place and swim elsewhere to save our lives."




           Whitie asked her, "Are you, sure friend? Will they really come to this side of the pond to catch fish?" "I am sure," replied Goldie. " Perhaps, you are right," said the whitie. Let us move immediately to some other pond, lake or river. Brownie was watching this conversation calmly. "This is my birthplace. I shall not leave from here," she told. Both Goldie and Whitie swam to the other side of the pond. The next day, the fishermen came and threw their net. A lot of fish were caught, including Brownie. They left the place with trays full of fish. Goldie and Whitie saw, with sad hearts, their friend being carried away. Had Brownie listened to their friends, she too would have escaped.

THE LIZARD AND THE SAINT - MORAL STORY

            There was a wicked saint who lived in a village. Although saints were very pious, this saint was the opposite. He was very cunning and selfish. He was not humble and kind. He used to chase away anyone approaching his hut. People did not like him. But, they were afraid of his curses. The saint was arrogant with his powers.      One day, a lizard happened to fall from a nearby tree into his hut. The saint turned very angry. He shouted at the lizard, "Get out of my house immediately, or. I shall curse you." The lizard ran away to save his life.        Not many days later, the same lizard slipped from the tree and fell again. This time the saint could not control his anger. He took a big stone and threw it at the lizard. The lizard was very active. He ran fast and escaped from the stone. However, the saint was not lucky. The stone missed the lizard and rebounded. It struck the saint right on his forehead and the sa...

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  !!! **** **** ****

THE ELEPHANT AND THE HELPFUL MICE MORAL STORY

In the heart of the forest, there was a ruined palace. The king had used it as a summer resort a long time back.    Now that the king had died, there were no visitors and the palace had turned into ruins. This ruined leftover had become the shelter for a colony of mice. Once, a herd of elephants happened to cross that way. With loud trumpeting, they crumpled everything they set foot on. When they were about to crush the ruins, the chief mouse ran to the master elephant and begged, "Hey mighty elephant, we are living in these ruins for generations and generations. All our children and their children would turn homeless if your mighty feet lands on these ruins. Be kind enough to spare our lives and our homes." The kind-hearted elephant ordered its fellow elephants not to disturb the ruins and left the place without damaging it.          Days went by. Season changed. Summer came. The mice went through the entire forest in search of food. As they were appr...
