King Midas and his golden touch

Once upon a time there was a king called Midas. He was


extremely fond of gold. Although he had a lot of it, he wanted
more. He thought if he had the golden touch, he would be the
happiest man in the world. Then and there the wish god
granted his wish. One day while he was sitting in the garden,
an apple fell from the tree, lie touched it and instantly the
apple turned-into gold. He became so glad and went to the
palace. He embraced his daughter in joy but instant the girl
turned into gold. Whatever he touched turned into gold. The
King hated his golden touch so much that he sprinkled even
the chairs and the tables and everything else that the fairy’s
gift had turned to gold.
Then he again prayed to the wish god to take away the golden
touch. Kind wish god granted the king’s prayer and lifted
from him the golden touch. King Midas took the princess
again into his lap. She became normal. Then Midas gave up
his greed. He realize always think very deeply before making
choices, each choice you make has its own consequence so,
make wise choices.
The moral in this story is that you should not be greedy and
appreciate what you already have, no matter how large or
small.
The Fox and the Grapes
The Fox and the Grapes
One afternoon a fox was walking through the forest and
spotted a bunch of grapes hanging from over a lofty branch.

“Just the thing to quench my thirst,” he thought.

Taking a few steps back, the fox jumped and just missed the
hanging grapes. Again the fox took a few paces back and
tried to reach them but still failed.

Finally, giving up, the fox turned up his nose and said,
“They’re probably sour anyway,” and proceeded to walk
away.

Moral: It’s easy to despise what you cannot have. Nothing


comes easy without a hard work. So, Work Hard and reach
your goals.
