The Boy and the Broken Fence

Once upon a time a young boy owned a large herd of one hundred sheep.Each day he counted his sheep to see if any were missing, and he always counted a hundred sheep. But one bright morning, he counted his sheep to find that one was missing.He counted again. He counted a third time.No doubt, there were only ninety-nine sheep. He looked everywhere for the lost sheep, but the sheep was nowhere to be found.So the boy went home.The next day, another sheep was missing. Once again, the boy couldn't find the sheep.So the boy went home, feeling sorry for himself. On the third day, another sheep was missing.Only ninety-seven were left. At last, the boy couldn't take anymore. He walked around the field twice looking for it and discovered a hole in his fence big enough for a sheep to crawl through,which he immediately repaired.The End.

Moral:1.If there's a problem, fix it.2.if there's a problem, find out what caused it to happen.3.It's never to late to fix a problem.

The two men who starved

Once upon a time, there was a kingdom ruled by an evil king. He made everyone work day and night without resting. His kingdom was split into 4 parts:The north, south, east and west sides. The lord of the north allowed his people to plot against their king. In this land were 2 men who wanted to stay loyal to their king even though he was evil. They tried to convince their lord, but all he said was "Enough! the way this king rules makes my blood boil. " So he and his army went to war with the king , and in the end they won. After that the 2 men were outraged because their new king had killed their old king. Everyone else was happy so they ran on top of a hill and shouted"We are not going to eat this kingdom's food!" nobody answered so they ate grass.In a month , when the days grew cold and short, the grass withered and the two men were starved to death.The End
