Once a monkey named Haka lived on a mango tree with his group. He was brave and intelligent but sometimes he used to act like a fool. All group respected him and obeyed his orders.

For some days a tension was there in all his group. The problem was that mango tree was very old. For many years it gave up to provide fruits, leaves were reducing day by day. There were many other green and strong trees in the jungle everywhere. It was possible for them to live there. They tried many times to convince Haka but in vain. Haka loved this tree because his grandparents used to live there and this tree provided sweet and fresh mangoes for many years as well as facilitated them with shadow and shelter. Due to these reasons his emotional attachment was developed to that tree and did not want to leave it. In the group there was a small monkey named Toba. Toba was very wise but a little bit naughty. All the monkeys of group knew that after Haka their leader will be Toba. All the group went to Toba and said “ Please Toba advice wisely to Haka about leaving this tree the life in here is being difficult day by day.”

He said “ I also want to leave this place I have talked to him but he feels sad about leaving this place.”

All the group sadly said “ But how can we continue to live here”

Toba said “brothers no need to get sad any problem can be settled if handled wisely I’ll do something for it.”

Next day Toba came to Haka Crying loudly.

“What happened?” Haka asked.

He replied “ I went to eat mangoes on the other side of the bank”

“I warned you not to go there the watchmen has long sticks to beat” Haka said angrily.

Toba said with a grim voice “same was there he saw me and tried to torture hardly with his stick. I managed to escape but my hand was injured badly”

“No need to get worry bandage will heal your wound up in some days” Haka said.

After some days Toba came jumping around and said “I am all well and there is no pain”

“ But why are you still having bandage” Haka asked.

He replied” It healed my wound and I like it very much. I’ll never leave it”

“Come on do not be a fool one day you will be the leader of the group and if you continue to act like a fool who will respect you as a leader”

Toba said” You are also the leader you love this tree and never want to leave it neither it gives food and neither shadow nor it has shelter and leaves. So I’ll never leave that bandage and keep it with me”.

At this Haka thought that he is also not being wise like Toba. All the group was in trouble and wanted to leave that tree. He said to Toba.

“You are really very good how easily you realized me my fault. We will go to another tree today”

“If that is so I’ll leave that bondage” Toba said mischievously.
All the group left that tree. They all were very happy.

The Frog Prince

2015-03-01T06:31:00.001-08:00

One fine evening a young princess put on her bonnet and clogs, and went out to take a walk by herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool spring of water with a rose in the middle of it, she sat herself down to rest a while. Now she had a golden ball in her hand, which was her favorite plaything; and she was always tossing it up into the air, and catching it again as it fell.

After a time she threw it up so high that she missed catching it as it fell; and the ball bounded away, and rolled along on the ground, until at last it fell down into the spring. The princess looked into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep, so deep that she could not see the bottom of it. She began to cry, and said, 'Alas! if I could only get my ball again, I would give all my fine clothes and jewels, and everything that I have in the world.'

Whilst she was speaking, a frog put its head out of the water, and said, 'Princess, why do you weep so bitterly?'

'Alas!' said she, 'what can you do for me, you nasty frog? My golden ball has fallen into the spring.'

The frog said, 'I do not want your pearls, and jewels, and fine clothes; but if you will love me, and let me live with you and eat from off your golden plate, and sleep on your bed, I will bring you your ball again.'

'What nonsense,' thought the princess, 'this silly frog is talking! He can never even get out of the spring to visit me, though he may be able to get my ball for me, and therefore I will tell him he shall have what he asks.'

So she said to the frog, 'Well, if you will bring me my ball, I will do all you ask.'

Then the frog put his head down, and dived deep under the water; and after a little while he came up again, with the ball in his mouth, and threw it on the edge of the spring.

As soon as the young princess saw her ball, she ran to pick it up; and she was so overjoyed to have it in her hand again, that she never thought of the frog, but ran home with it as fast as she could.

The frog called after her, 'Stay, princess, and take me with you as you said,'

But she did not stop to hear a word.

The next day, just as the princess had sat down to dinner, she heard a strange noise - tap, tap - plash, plash - as if something was coming up the marble staircase, and soon afterwards there was a gentle knock at the door, and a little voice cried out and said:

'Open the door, my princess dear,

Open the door to thy true love here!

And mind the words that thou and I said

By the fountain cool, in the greenwood shade.'

Then the princess ran to the door and opened it, and there she saw the frog, whom she had quite forgotten. At this sight she was sadly frightened, and shutting the door as fast as she could came back to her seat.

The king, her father, seeing that something had frightened her, asked her what was the matter.

'There is a nasty frog,' said she, 'at the door, that lifted my ball for me out of the spring this morning. I told him that he should live with me here, thinking that he could never get out of the spring; but there he is at the door, and he wants to come in.'

While she was speaking the frog knocked again at the door, and said:

'Open the door, my princess dear,

Open the door to thy true love here!

And mind the words that thou and I said

By the fountain cool, in the greenwood shade.'

Then the king said to the young princess, 'As you have given your word you must keep it; so go and let him in.'

She did so, and the frog hopped into the room, and then straight on - tap, tap - plash, plash - from the bottom of the room to the top, till he came up close to the table where the princess sat.

'Pray lift me upon chair,' said he to the princess, 'and let me sit next to you.'

As soon as she had done this, the frog said, 'Put your plate nearer to me, that I may eat out of it.'

This she did, and when he had eaten as much as he could, he said, 'Now I am tired; carry me upstairs, and put me into your bed.' And the princess, though very unwilling, took him up in her hand, and put him upon the pillow of her own bed, where he slept all night long.

As soon as it was light the frog jumped up, hopped downstairs, and went out of the house.

'Now, then,' thought the princess, 'at last he is gone, and I shall be troubled with him no more.'

But she was mistaken; for when night came again she heard the same tapping at the door; and the frog came once more, and said:

'Open the door, my princess dear,

Open the door to thy true love here!

And mind the words that thou and I said

By the fountain cool, in the greenwood shade.'

And when the princess opened the door the frog came in, and slept upon her pillow as before, till the morning broke. And the third night he did the same. But when the princess awoke on the following morning she was astonished to see, instead of the frog, a handsome prince, gazing on her with the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen and standing at the head of her bed.

He told her that he had been enchanted by a spiteful fairy, who had changed him into a frog; and that he had been fated so to abide till some princess should take him out of the spring, and let him eat from her plate, and sleep upon her bed for three nights.

'You,' said the prince, 'have broken his cruel charm, and now I have nothing to wish for but that you should go with me into my father's kingdom, where I will marry you, and love you as long as you live.'

The young princess, you may be sure, was not long in saying 'Yes' to all this; and as they spoke a brightly colored coach drove up, with eight beautiful horses, decked with plumes of feathers and a golden harness; and behind the coach rode the prince's servant, faithful Heinrich, who had bewailed the misfortunes of his dear master during his enchantment so long and so bitterly, that his heart had well-nigh burst.

They then took leave of the king, and got into the coach with eight horses, and all set out, full of joy and merriment, for the prince's kingdom, which they reached safely; and there they lived happily a great many years.

The sparrow was shouting loudly and all the sparrows gathered from the nearby trees. They all asked

What happened? What is wrong?

The sparrow said with tears in the eyes, “Today the cruel snake has eaten up my eggs. The eggs were going to change into kids.”

One of those sparrows said, “Patience my dear. It is fate for us. We can do nothing to this cruel snake. He is strong and we are weak.”

Every sparrow was talking in this tune but one of those sparrows was very brave. She came forward and said, “Every animal and bird has a right to live in peace. We should prevent him from this cruel act. If we had stopped him in the past, he wouldn’t have done this cruel act today.”

One of those sparrows spoke, “But how can we stop that cruel snake. Who will tell him to abstain from doing this cruel act?”

The brave sparrow said, “We all will tell him. If we sparrows are united then even the lion cannot harm us. This is nothing but a little snake. Now I am going to him to stop him. If he doesn’t stop then we will have a fight with him.”

After saying that, the brave sparrow went to the snake and said, “O cruel snake! Stop eating our eggs. We are not enemies. Let us live in peace. Do you like that someone other eats your eggs and kids.”

The snake rudely said to the brave sparrow, “No one dares to fight with me. I do what I like. I will not change my activities. Do what you can.”

Brave sparrow replied, “Ok! Let be it. I was expecting good from you but you are cruel and proud. Now we will show our power if you do anything wrong to us.”

After saying this she came back to the other sparrows, told them the whole conversation and said, “Be ready. If he does anything wrong to us, we will have a decisive war and bring his end. We will be relieved forever.”

You could easily hide them from me.” The young scholar said, “My mother has told me always to speak the truth. The advice of my mother is more precious for me that the gold coins”

The robber reported the whole incident to his chief and other mates. They were much impressed by the truthfulness of Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA).

Dear kids! This is the world of false show. Many times we show dishonesty to get temporary gains. We never realize that only honest work can give us satisfaction. The story of an honest woodcutter shows that honesty is rewarded not only in heaven, but also in this world.

Truth Always Triumphs

Once there lived a woodcutter in a village. He was very poor. At the same time he was very gentle and honest. He believed in hard work. He earned his living by selling wood in the town. Once he was cutting a tree near a river. His axe slipped from his hands and fell into the river. He became very sad. He did not know what to do. He looked upward and prayed to God for help. Just then an angel appeared there. He asked the woodcutter what happened. The woodcutter told him the story. The angel felt sorry for him. He dived into the river and brought out an axe. This axe was made of pure gold. He gave this gold axe to the woodcutter. The woodcutter refused to take it. He said that it was not his axe. The angel once again dived and brought out another axe. This time the axe was made of silver. He gave this silver axe to the woodcutter. The woodcutter again refused to take it. The angel dived into the river for the third time. This time he brought out an iron axe. The woodcutter felt very happy to see his own axe. He thanked the angel for this help. The angel was much impressed by the honesty of the woodcutter. He gave him all the three axes as a gift and disappeared.

Happy New Year

When I entered in the room, all my nephews and niece became very happy.

I asked them, “So kids what’s up?”

Angela said,” Uncle! We are making plans for New Year night but Steve is not agreeing with us. I have suggested all to arrange a party at home but Steve wants to go outside with his friends.”

Steve said at this, “Actually uncle I don’t want to make my friends disappointed otherwise New Year will have no joys for me so I have decided to go with my friends. We will have a motorbike race at that night.”

I became sad that these kids were busy in such type of conversation. I started to tell them a story.

I started, “Few years earlier on the New Year night I also used to have a motorbike race with my friends. Then a sad event changed my life completely and gave me a very good lesson.”

They all asked, “What lesson?”

I added, “On the night of 31^st December, we all friends were gathered for a motorbike race. When I and my friend Andy came to our friends, they insisted that I and Andy should have a race alone. Let’s see who will win the race.

We were driving motorbike with full speed that suddenly, Andy’s bike got accident with the footpath and Andy fell right in the center of the road. A car came up upon him with full speed and crashed him in seconds. After a few seconds, Andy was dead.”

All the children were listening this story with deep silence. My eyes were full of tears.

I further said, “This accident gave a very deep impact on my mind and I started to change my life. From that day I dropped all the dangerous activities from my life.”

Steve stood up and said, “I will tell this story to all my friends and definitely they will decide to abstain from the race. We will start this new year with the party at home because life is very beautiful and we should not throw it away in dangerous activities.”

A satisfactory smile came on my face.
