Be help full
A teacher once grave his students a big meal. The happy students sat down, and the food was served on banana leaves. They said their prayers. They were about to eat when the teacher said, `Wait, my dear students. Here is a small test for you, please eat, but not bend your arms. Now you may begin’.
The students were puzzled. How could they eat without bending their arms? Some of them even got angry. Was the teacher playing trick on them?
Suddenly, a clever student spoke up. He said to the others, `Let us each feed the student in front of us. In this way, all of us can eat with our arms held straight.’
The teacher came back. He saw his students enjoying the meal. Each student was feeding the student seated in front of him.
The teacher was happy. His students had passed the test. If the students not helped each other, they would not have been able to eat.
When we help one another, all of us are happy.
The tenth man
It was a hot summer morning. Ten friends decided to go for a swim in the river.
The water was nice and cool and there was no one else around. Raja, the leader of the group, said, `We should be careful. So let’s hold hands when we get into the water, and stay close to the bank.’
The ten friends got into the river holding hands. But soon they let go of their hands. They splashed around and played happily in the water for a while. When they climbed onto the bank, Raja said, `we did not hold hands all the time. We were not careful. Let us find if all ten of us are safe.
Raja made hiss friends stand in a line. He then began to count, `one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine – where is the tenth man?’
A farmer was watching them. He asked Raja to join the line and he counted, `One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten! There you are- all of you are safe.’
Raja said to the farmer, `Thank you, sir. You helped us find the missing friend.
The trees and the axe
A man once wanted to cut down some trees to make a house. But he could not use his axe because it had no handle.
So he went to the top of hill where there were many trees and said to them, `May I take a tree from this hill?’
But he did not tell them why?
The trees said to one another, `Let us give him a very little tree. Then he will go away and not ask us for anything more’.
So they gave him a little tree and the man went home. When he got there he made a handle for his axe.
Then he went back to the hill and began to cut down the other trees.
`If we had not let have the little tree he could not have cut us down,’ they said.
But it was too late to stop him.
Rainy day
It was Sunday. Ram wanted to go out and play. But his mother had told him to finish his homework first.
Ram was doing the last sum in his Maths notebook. Suddenly the sky turned dark. Soon it started raining. Ram felt sad. He stood near the window and watched the rain.
It was raining heavily and the wind was very strong. Suddenly, Ram heard the cry of birds from the tree in front of his hose. He remembered the baby sparrows in the nest. They were getting wet. The branch was shaking in the wind and the baby birds were afraid.
From his verandah, Ram could reach the nest. He did not want to disturb the birds but he had to protect them from the rain. He took a small tablecloth and hung it over the nest. Now the baby sparrows were safe in their nest. They stopped crying. Ram was very happy.
