STORY TIME

THE WIND AND THE SUN 

It was an autumn day and the Wind and the Sun were having an argument.
The Wind boasted: "I am stronger than you!"
The Sun mildly replied: "No, you are not."
Just then, they saw a traveller wrapped in a blanket was passing by.
The Wind said: "Whoever separates the blanket from that man is the stronger. Do you agree?"
The Sun answered: "OK, you try first."

The Wind started blowing, so the traveller wrapped his blanket around him;
He blew harder but the man held his blanket firmer;
The Wind blew still harder and the traveller held his blanket still tighter;
The harder the Wind blew the tighter and firmer did the traveller hold his blanket.
At the end the Wind failed miserably.

It was the Sun's turn and he started to smile gently at the traveller;
The traveller loosened his grip on the blanket;
The sun smiled warmly, so the traveller felt the warmth and soon took off the blanket.
The Sun was declared stronger.

MORAL: Gentle smile can achieve what brutal force can't.
