I’m Nur Darwisyah representing Cekal and I’m going to tell you a
story entitled THE HONEST WOODCUTTER.
Commented [r1]:
Once upon a time there was a poor woodcutter. He was very poor but he was always
honest. One hot day, he took his axe and went inside the nearby forest in search of wood.
After searching for a long time, he found one good tree near a river inside the forest.
Oh no! As the woodcutter was cutting the woods, his axe slipped from his hands and fell
inside the river. The river was very deep. So he couldn't get into the water to take his axe
out. He started crying.
“ Oh..oh..what am I going to do?”
“ I have lost my precious axe. Oh dear, oh dear..”
The angel again went inside the water. This time she came out with a silver axe and gave
it to the woodcutter. Again the woodcutter refused saying that his was not a silver axe.
The angel dived into the water. This time she came out with the woodcutter's iron axe.
The woodcutter happily accepted his axe and thanked the angel. The angel was pleased
with his honesty. The angel rewarded the gold and the silver axes to that woodcutter.
The moral of the story is, Honesty always gets rewarded.
