"No, I won't go," said the tiger.

"Don't worry. Let's tie up our tails together and let’s go together", said the jackal. The tiger agreed with him. When the kid saw the tiger with jackal, he got frightened but anyhow he collected his strength and shouted, "Thank you, jackal brother. You are bringing the tiger for me; I'll never forget you help. I'll kill him and you can eat all his flesh because I don't eat meat."

When the tiger heard it, he ran away without looking behind. The cunning jackal was badly dragged. The jackal hit his head on a big stone and died soon.

After that the goat returned home and told his parents everything. He started to cry. Hugging his mother, he said, "Mum, I had nearly become the tiger's food. I'll never go to the jungle. I'll follow your advice."

Moral: We should obey our parents.

Make the World

There was a famous and beautiful temple on the summit of a hill. That temple was a destination of millions of pilgrims. On the way to the temple, there existed a small village. But the people of that village had to live miserable lie. They had to struggle much to meet their hands and mouth. The mode of transportation to reach the temple was rope-way like cable car the village was located between the temple and the rope way station. The villagers were not accessible to any infrastructure of development. Indeed their life style was a mighty tough.

One day a man visited the temple. He hadn't visited it before. During his way to the temple via rope way, he felt the miserable scenario of the villagers. Right after that, an idea hunted in his mind. He saw thousands of people visiting the temple every day. He thought if everyone who visited the temple would drop a rupee per individual then the villagers life style would be completely changed.

A big program was held in the temple. He proposed his thought in a program saying, 'if we really believe on god and worship him, we should drop a rupee per individual. All the pilgrims appreciated his thought. They formed a committee and passed that proposal. The proposal was implemented successfully.

The Villagers were informed about it. Right from the next day, the rule was implemented and villagers gathered at a junction. Every day they collected a lot of money dropped by the thousands of pilgrims. The villagers became rich in no time and as imagined by the man, their life was really changed.

Again, one day another programme was held to respect that man and his idea. Millions of pilgrims and all the villagers were there in the programme. The man was respected and was requested to deliver few words in front of the accumulated mass. He started his speech saying, 'Well! Today I'm pretty happy I don't have any words to express my inner satisfaction. But what I would like to request all the people is that, please! Please! Contribute to the world, because you are the human.
