''NEVER TRUST A STRANGER" ( Moral Story )

Once upon a time there was a crane who lived by the side of a beautiful lake. The lake was full of fishes ,crabs and other water animals . The crane was quite lazy and did not want to make any effort to get the food for himself ,he wanted to get his food very easily and always thought about that.

One day by chance a crab came near the side of the lake , the cunning crane saw him and said in a sad voice, " Oh dear crab I feel so sorry for you, your family and friends ". "But why? Why do you feel sorry for us ?"The crab asked him who was not aware of the fact that the crane was actually making a plan and was using him.

" Dear friend , yesterday I met a fortune-teller who told me that This lake will be dead in next few days and all the creatures living in the lake will also lose their lives because of that".
"Oh , no! It is really such a bad news, I should tell it to my family and friends immediately '', Crab said.
"Don't be panic , please, I can help you all to survive ,I do not want to see you all dead .'' "Please tell me how can you help us''? Crab asked to the crane .
"There is a very good lake , not very far away from here , I can take all of you there one by one and you can live there safely. "
"Oh, you are so kind , you will save our lives ". The crab went into the lake to tell all the animals, what the crane said . The poor innocent creatures decided that they will leave the lake one by one with the help of crane .

The crane said that he will take the fishes first , and he started carrying the fishes on his back and instead of saving them he ate them all . He was so happy that his plan was successful.

One day the crab said to the crane " Dear friend please take me with you today''. The crane who had got bored of eating fishes daily and wanted to eat some other animal , agreed to take the crab with him. The crab sat on his back and the crane flew in the sky. After some time crab asked ''How far is the new lake''?The crane answered ''There is no lake you fool , I lied to you to eat you all.Now it is your turn to die , I will eat you today."
Though the crab was frightened he gathered all his courage and grabbed the neck of crane with his claws and said '' Take me back to my home otherwise I will kill you ".The crane had no other choice and he flew back.
When the crane landed on the lake shore the crab jumped into the lake and saved his life . He told all the other creatures about the misdeed of the greedy crane and they all learned the lesson that one should ''Never Trust A Stranger''

Almost every child loves the sweet , delicious , yummy chocolates. Am I right children? You want it in desserts, you like it in cakes, cookies and you want it in milk shakes, don't you ?

The amazing, mouth-watering taste of this sweet makes it every body's favorite.You can't resist yourself from eating a chocolate when you look at it, , what a temptation!

Today I am sharing some facts about this lovely tasty sweet . I hope you will like them and share them with your friends , like you share the chocolates with them :)
Chocolate is made from the seed of "Theobroma Cacao" tree .

image source- en.wikipedia.org
The Cacao has been cultivated in 'Mexico', 'Central America' and 'Northern South America'.The seeds of Cacao have a bitter taste and need to be fermented to get the flavor. Once the seeds are fermented,they are dried,cleaned and roasted.The shell is removed to get the chocolate nibs.

image source-publicdomainpictures.net
These nibs are ground to cocoa mass, which is rough form of chocolate. The rough chocolate needs to be liquefied . The liquid is called chocolate liquor.This liquid is molded to form the chocolate.

The benefits of eating chocolate are that it reduces the risk of cancer , lowers blood pressure and prevents coughing and heart diseases.

Harms of chocolate are that it may cause obesity, headache,acne and tooth decay.
So my dear children eat chocolate, but in moderation.As we all know excess of everything is bad .

I FEEL GOOD ( poem )

I feel happy and I feel good,
I feel lucky and I feel good .

I feel good when granny sings a song,
I love the song and I sing along.

I feel good when teacher gives me "A",
And claps for me... hip, hip hurray.....

I feel good when my baby sis,
Smiles at me and gives me flying kiss.
I Feel good when my dear mommy,
Hugs me and says" my little baby".

I feel happy and I feel good ,
I feel lucky and blessed, touch wood.

An Honest Friend Is a Good Friend

"Oh my God how lovely you are looking in this dress , pink color suits you so well" . A girl says to her friend . "Ah! look at you , you are looking like a rock star in your new hair cut' . A boy compliments his friend ." Your maths project is cool boss , you will sure get ten on ten on the chart", A friend tells to another. But do they really mean it ? Are that boy and girl actually looking so good? Is the math project good enough to get perfect ten ? Or their friends are saying this" just to please them" ?

Now look at the other side of picture." Your pink dress is o.k but I think an orange colored dress will suit you more", a girl says to her friend. "I am sorry bro but your old hair style was better than this hair cut ", a boy said to his closest friend . "Your maths project is nice but not good enough to get ten on ten ,you should add some more solved sums to it" . A friend gives advice to his friend ."Honest and frank opinions".

So what kind of friends will you prefer ? A friend who tells you every thing about you frankly and honestly or a friend who always praises you just to make you happy?'Think about it ".

A poem by famous Persian poet "SAADI"

I am displeased with the company of friends ,

To whom my bad qualities appear to be good,

They fancy my faults are virtues and perfection,

My thorns they believe to be rose and jasmine,

Say where is the bold and quick enemy,

To make me aware of my defects?
