Once upon a time in a small village lived a gardener who grew different varieties of fruits, he was amongst the few who grew such fresh fruits and sold them.It was a custom in the village that the first grains, fruits, or vegetables were offered to the queen as a gift and this time it was the Gardner's turn to make the offer.The queen of that village was a nice lady but extremely moody and short tempered. However, the gardener somehow was not aware of this. It was the time of the year when grapes could be grown at their best and so the gardener grew grapes, and decided to gift some to the queen. The queen loved to have grapes. So he packed a big bunch of grapes and took them to offer to the queen.At the palace he waited for his turn to come, but the queen was probably not in the best of her moods. As she tried one of the grapes, instead of being thankful she frowned at the Gardner and threw the grapes on his face.The Gardner was in shock but he was quick and clever to react. He said, “thank you God!&nbsp;You have been very kind!”&nbsp;On hearing this, the queen was really amazed. She asked him in amazement, “Why on earth are you thanking God?”; to which he replied, “I was going to get a watermelon for you, I am lucky I changed my mind. What if you had thrown the watermelon on my head”.The queen started laughing and her anger vanished. She not only distributed the grapes in the kingdom but also gave the gardener a gift.Moral:Wit can overpower anger.

Once upon a time there were two friends who lived in a palace with their families, who worked in service of the King. One of these boys knew a girl he liked so much that he wanted to give her a present.One day, he was walking with his friend in the main palace hall, and he saw a big vase filled with the loveliest flowers you could imagine. He decided to take one to give to the girl, thinking that no one would see him do so. He did the same thing the next day, and the next, and the next... until, one day, the King noticed how few flowers were left in the vase. He was so angry that he called everyone in the palace to assemble.When they were all before the King, the boy thought he should say it had been him who took the flowers. However, his friend told him to be quiet, because the King would be terribly angry with him. The boy was paralysed with fear, but when the King came near he decided to confess.As soon as the boy said that he had done it, the King went red with anger, but on hearing what the boy had done with the flowers, a smile appeared on the King's face, and he said,"I couldn't have thought of a better use for my flowers."And, from that day, the boy and the King became great friends. They went to the vase and took two of those wonderful flowers, one for the girl, and the other for the Queen.Moral: Honesty impresses one and all.

A flower a day

Once upon a time there lived a king who had three sons. The first one was known as the Prince of Stars, the second was known as the Moon Prince and the third was called the Sun Prince. The king had his first two sons from his first wife, and the third one from his second wife. When the third prince was born, the king had promised the second queen to give her any boon she might ask.The queen remembered this and waited for an opportune moment, to put forward her demands. When the third son grew up, she asked the king to grant her the promised boon. She wanted the king to give the reins of the kingdom to the youngest prince. The king refused to do so, saying, “Dear, the kingdom must go to the eldest prince, and never to the youngest. Please ask me for something else.” The queen was infuriated and accused the king of not being a man of his word.The way the second queen was fuming with anger, got the king worried. He thought the queen may try to harm the elder princes, in order to make the youngest prince the king. So, he called his elder sons and told them to go away and live in the forest. He instructed them to come back to the city and start ruling it. With a heavy heart, he bid adieu to his beloved sons and sent them away.The youngest prince happened to see them walking out of the palace. On hearing where they were going, he also decided to leave the palace and go with them. The three of them thus set out towards the forest. When they reached in the middle of the forest, they sat down to take rest near a pond. The elder princes asked the youngest prince to fetch some water for them from the pond.That pond belonged to a water sprite, who had the power in him to enslave every human being that came to drink water from the pond and failed to give the correct answers of his questions. When the Sun prince went to take water from the pond, the water sprite appeared before him and said, “O Prince, you can only have water from my pond if you answer my question correctly.” The Sun Prince said, “Sure, I will try my best to answer your question.” The water sprite then asked the prince, “What are the good fairies like?” The Sun Prince replied, “They are like the sun and the moon.” The water sprite did not quite like his answer and shouted, “No, this is not true! Now, you will have to come with me and be my slave.” Saying so, he took the prince into his cave under the water.” When the Sun Prince did not come back for a long time, the eldest prince sent the Moon Prince to go and look for him. When he reached near the pond, the water sprite appeared before him and asked him the same question, “What are good fairies like?”The Moon Prince answered, “Well, they are like the sky above us.”The water sprite said, “No, that is the wrong answer!” And saying so, he took the Moon Prince also to his cave.Then at last, the eldest prince decided to go and look for his brothers. When he reached the pond, he saw the water sprite there. He understood that the water sprite must have taken his brothers into his custody.The prince called out to the water sprite and said, “O Water Sprite, have you taken my brothers with you?”The water sprite replied, “Oh yes, I had to take them in my custody because they failed to answer my question. I own this pond and allow only those to take water from my pond who answer my question correctly. Those who don’t, have to come with me and become my slaves.”The Star Prince said, “I will answer your questions. And if my answer is correct, promise me that you will release my brothers.”The water sprite said, “We shall see! My question to you is that, what are the good fairies like?”The Star Prince replied, “They are pure in heart, who fear to sin. They are good and kindly in word and deed.”The water sprite was pleased with the prince’s answer, “You are indeed very wise! But, I will return only one of your brothers. Tell me whom should I bring back?”The Star Prince replied, “Give me the youngest brother back. Though, he is my step brother, I love him as dearly as my real brother. If I ask for my own brother back, it would be unjust to the second queen. One of the first queen’s sons, that is me, is alive and so, it should be the second queen’s son whose life should be spared. Apart from that, if I return to the kingdom without the youngest brother, people will think that I have killed my step brother. No one will believe that a water sprite is holding him as a prisoner.”The water sprite was so pleased with the prince’s answer that he released both the princes from captivity. Moral:Our wisdom can get us out of tricky situations with minimal causality.
