Be content with your situation There lived an elephant in a jungle.

This elephant used to compare it with the other birds and animals and gets depressed. Hence its face will be always filled with sorrow and grief. Once when it saw a sparrow flying, an unbearable grief struck its heart and cried saying, I don t have wings to fly!. "rieving so, it was not even interested to have its meal. #earby a nightingale was singing beautifully. This increased the sorrow of the elephant. He started crying again saying, $ll these birds are singing beautifully but I don t have the talent of singing. "od has shown partiality!. $ butterfly was sucking nectar from the beautiful flowers. %eeing this, the elephant started grumbling saying, "od has provided sweet food for butterflies but I am passing the days by eating tasteless trees and leaves!. %eeing a spotted deer running, the elephant will shed tears by saying, Oh, I don t have the beautiful colored skin of this deer and I don t have thin legs to run!. %eeing the ants passing through the tunnels underground, it will cry saying, I don t have a path to go underground!. $tlast the elephant became very thin, weak and was bedridden. Then all the birds and animals of the jungle came to the elephant and comforted him saying, &lephant Ji "od has blessed you with great strength and power. 'ou have been blessed with strong legs. 'our tusk is so e(pensive. )ust think how great you are among all the creations. There is even a proverb about you such as *ive elephant is also worth +,,, gold coins and a dead elephant is also worth +,,, gold coins!. Then the elephant reali-ed how "od has blessed him and started thanking "od. .ear little children, there is nobody in this world who has been blessed with all talents. "od has blessed each one of us with different talents. It has not been given to us to compare it with other s talent. It is also not necessary to get sad by underestimating our talent. /e should try to do "od s will whole0heartedly from wherever we are placed. /e should be happy thinking of our blessings instead of undervaluing ourselves thinking of our imperfections.
