TWO MONKEYS - MORAL STORY

          A monkey lived in a mountain cave. He was kind-hearted and loved to help other animals. He used to share his food, fruits and vegetables with those who didn't have any to eat. 




           Once, he found a wounded monkey in the foothills. "Oh dear friend, are you wounded seriously? Tell me how you got hurt," asked the kind-hearted monkey. "I can't move my limbs. I think I have some broken ribs. I was playing on a treetop, swinging from one branch to another. I slipped and fell down," replied the wounded monkey. So, the kind-hearted monkey helped the wounded monkey to his cave. He treated the monkey for his wounds. After some days the wounded monkey healed and turned healthy. "Friend, you have healed. You are now ready to join your family," said the kind-hearted monkey. "I am still a bit weak," replied the other monkey. "OK then, I shall bring you some food to eat," said the kind-hearted monkey and left the cave.




          The kind-hearted monkey searched for food. While searching, he was thinking about the wounded monkey. He was somehow disturbed in the way the wounded monkey behaved lately. Anyhow, the kind-hearted monkey collected food for the wounded monkey and reached the cave. There he found the entire family of the wounded monkey dancing with joy. "See how well I have been cheating the kind-hearted monkey," boasted the wounded monkey. "You are such a good actor," appreciated his wife. Right at that moment, the kind-hearted monkey entered the cave. All the monkeys were shocked. "You are very early my friend, meet my family," the wounded monkey said with a shiver in his voice. "My friend, I have been kind to you not because of your wound alone, but with a feeling of compassion. So, please take your family and leave the cave. Don't try to do something foolish. Remember I treated your wounds. I can cripple you in one strike," cautioned the kind hearted monkey. The monkey left the place and was never to be seen in the forest again.

THE RABBIT AND HIS FRIENDS - MORAL STORY

            Bunny was a lively rabbit. He was always in the company of some animal or the other. He was friendly with all of them.               Once, Bunny heard a pack of hunting dogs in the forest. He was afraid that they would catch him. He ran to a deer he thought was his close friend and said, "Dear brother, I hear a pack of hunting dogs in the forest nearby. Please save me. You have such sharp antlers. You can thrash them. Please help me, friend !" The coolly replied, "I am sorry, Bunny.        I am too busy to help you out. Go and find someone else for your help." Bunny ran to many of his friends - the bear, the monkey, the zebra, and even the panther. They all gave the same reply. Finally, the tired Bunny met a mouse and told his pathetic state. The mouse replied, "Why are you panicking. Just get into your borough and stay inside till the pack leaves this area. You shall be safe." Bunny we...

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  !!! **** **** ****

HONEY BEE AND THE PIGEON - MORAL STORY

            It was the rainy season. The forest was thriving with lush green leaves and fresh flowers. All birds and animals were busy collecting food during breaks in the showering rain.           A pigeon was making some repair work in her nest. She was busy collecting available dry sticks. She was flying here and there. Suddenly, she saw a honey bee being drifted in the river below. The honey bee was trying hard to keep its wings dry. The pigeon was very much sorry for the bee. In an effort to save the honey bee, the pigeon plucked a dry leaf and threw it at the bee.         The honey bee was strong enough to lift itself and lay on the dry leaf for some time. Once she was totally dry, the honey bee flew happily saying, "Dear friend, I shall not forget this timely help." Days passed. Autumn came. Hunters poached the forest in search of animals to hunt. They killed any animal they set eyes on.     ...
