THE PEACOCK AND THE CROW STORY

 

Once upon a time a crow lived in the forest and was happy and satisfied in life. But one day he saw a swan. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black. This swan must be the happiest bird in the world.”

BLAME

One day a man went for a walk on the beach. He saw that a ship full of passengers struck a rock and capsized in the sea. The ship went under water and all the people on board fell into the sea. As they did not know how to swim, they drowned one by one. The man watched all this from the shore but could not do anything to help the people. 

In the evening, he narrated the sad event of the ship's drowning to his friends. Everyone felt sorry for the dead people. The man said, "God has not been just. To kill one sinner aboard the ship he killed so many other innocent people." 

As he was saying this, he felt a pinch on his feet. He looked down. A red ant was biting his toe. Many other red ants were near his feet. In anger, he started stamping his feet to crush the red ants. 

God appeared at the spot and said, "See, how you are killing other innocent ants to kill the one which bit you. You were blaming me for my unjust act. Look at your own actions before blaming me for anything." 

The man felt ashamed as he realized his mistake. 

lesson;

Stop pointing fingers and placing blame on others, your life can only change to the degree that you accept responsibility for it.

TEAMWORK SYNDROME

AN ACT OF HONESTY

 An emperor who was growing old and knew it was coming time to choose his successor, decided to do something different instead of choosing one of his assistants or one of his own children.

He called all the young people in the kingdom together one day. He said, "It's time for me to step down and to choose the next emperor. I have decided to choose one of you." The kids were shocked! But the emperor continued. "I am going to give each one of you a seed today. One seed each. It is a very special seed. I want you to go home, plant the seed, water it and come back here one year from today with what you have grown from this one seed. I will then judge the plants that you bring to me, and the one I choose will be the next emperor of the kingdom!"
