#5. Story :
The Resourceful Mice
Once upon a time, there were two mice sisters named Beth and Mary. They
knew that winter was coming and that they needed to gather food to survive.
Beth was responsible and hardworking, while Mary was carefree and lazy.
Beth spent hours every day diligently
collecting beans for the winter. She knew it was important to be prepared, even though it was hard work. By the
time winter arrived, Beth had a huge pile of beans hidden in a secret cache.
On the other hand, Mary spent her days playing and dancing, thinking
that food would magically appear when she needed it. She didn't take gathering
food seriously and only had a small amount stored away when winter arrived.
Realizing her mistake, Mary went to her sister Beth for help. She
begged Beth to share her beans, but Beth refused. Instead, Beth offered Mary an
empty bag and told her she needed to work hard and gather her own food. Mary
was upset, complaining that it was too much work and she wouldn't have time to
play or dance.
Beth insisted that gathering enough food was crucial for survival and
that Mary needed to prioritize her sustenance
over fun. Reluctantly, Mary took
the bag and went to work, realizing the value of hard work and responsibility.
As the winter days passed, Mary learned the importance of planning
ahead and being diligent. She worked tirelessly to gather enough food to last
her through the winter. It was challenging,
but Mary was determined to survive.
By the time winter ended, Mary had collected enough food to sustain
herself. She thanked Beth for teaching her the importance of hard work and responsibility. Beth was proud of Mary's transformation and was happy to see her sister
grow and learn from her mistakes.
From that day on, both Beth and Mary became known as the resourceful mice in the neighborhood. They
shared their wisdom with other
animals and always made sure to gather enough food for the winter. They also
made time for play and dance, but they understood that hard work and preparation were necessary for a secure future.
And so, the tale of Beth and Mary spread far and wide, inspiring other animals to be diligent and responsible
in preparing for the challenges
that life may bring. They lived happily ever after, always remembering the
importance of hard work, responsibility, and the value of planning ahead.
