One hot summer day a
crow was feeling very thirsty. It flew all over the fields looking for water,
but all was in vain. For a long time it flew here and there, but it could not
find water to quench its thirst. It felt very weak and almost lost all hope to
find water.
Suddenly, it saw a
pitcher below a tree. It flew down to see if it had any water inside. Yes, it
could see some water at the bottom of the pitcher!.
The crow tried to push
his head into the jug. But the crow could not reach the water with its beak.
The neck of the pitcher was too long and the water level was too low. Then it
tried to tilt the pot for the water to flow out by the pot was too heavy and
did not move an inch.
The tired crow thought
hard for a while. It looked around and found some pebbles which gave it a good
idea. It picked the pebbles one by one and dropped them in the pitcher. As more
and more pebbles were dropped into the pot, the water level started rising.
Soon the water level was high enough for the crow to drink from it. It drank
the water, quenched its thirst and happily flew to its destination.
The story of the
thirsty crow shows us that every problem is solvable if you work hard to solve
it. So never let the problems and challenges in your life bring you down, work
hard and use it to learn and grow.
