The Obstacles of Path


Once upon a time there was a King. One day, he placed a large stone in the mid of a roadway.

He then hid himself and watched to see if anyone would move the stone out of the way.

Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants, and courtiers came by, and simply walked around it.

Many people loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear but none of them did anything about getting the stone out of the way.

A peasant then passed by in his horse cart.

Upon approaching the large stone, the peasant stopped. And tried to push the stone out of the road.

After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded.

After the peasant went back to his cart, he noticed a purse lying near the vegetables.

The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King explaining that the gold was for the person who removed the large stone from the roadway.

The Fox & the Grapes- Short Story for Kids ( Aesop Fables)

Image
  The Fox & the Grapes A Fox one day spied a beautiful bunch of ripe grapes hanging from a vine trained along the branches of a tree. The grapes seemed ready to burst with juice, and the Fox's mouth watered as he gazed longingly at them. The bunch hung from a high branch, and the Fox had to jump for it. The first time he jumped he missed it by a long way. So he walked off a short distance and took a running leap at it, only to fall short once more. Again and again he tried, but in vain. Now he sat down and looked at the grapes in disgust. "What a fool I am," he said. "Here I am wearing myself out to get a bunch of sour grapes that are not worth gaping for." And off he walked very, very scornfully. There are many who pretend to despise and belittle that which is beyond their reach.

Live Life King Size - Short Motivational story for Kids

Live Life King Size   An eagle’s egg was placed in the nest of a prairie chicken. The egg hatched and the little eagle grew up thinking it was a prairie chicken. The eagle did what the prairie chickens did. It scratched in the dirt for seeds. It clucked and cackled. It never flew more than a few feet because that is what the prairie chickens did. One day he saw an eagle flying gracefully and majestically in the open sky. He asked the prairie chickens: What is that beautiful bird? The chickens replied,”That is an eagle. He is an outstanding bird, but you can not fly like him because you are just a prairie chicken.” So the eagle never gave it a second thought, believing that to be the truth. He lived the life of and died a prairie chicken, depriving himself of his heritage because of his lack of vision. What a waste! He was born to win, but was conditioned to lose.   Learning -  Problems in our life are bestowed on us, to free us from our mental bondage. The gift of freedom (Success) com

After some time, he wandered out of the jungle he lived in and reached a deserted battlefield. Suddenly, he heard a strange noise. He got very frightened and thought of running away. "If I cannot flee from here, before I am seen by the person making all this noise, I will be in trouble". As he was about to run away, he had a second thought.
