Gwalini's dream



Gwalini's dream


A Gwalini was going to the market with a jug of milk on his head to sell milk.


As he went on, his mind became very happy. He started thinking, 'The money I get from selling this milk can buy at least 300 eggs. If you start a chicken farm with those eggs, you will get at least two and a half hundred chickens even if some are lost. When chicken prices are at their highest, these chickens will be ready for sale. At the end of the year, I will buy a cow with the money that accumulates in my hand. In the next year, one cow will become another cow. Thus in five years I will have many cows. Then I will become the richest man in the village.'


As he was thinking, he suddenly tripped over a stone. The milk jug with him fell on the ground and broke. All the milk spilled on the road. And all the wonderful plans are over.


Lesson of the story: It is dangerous to think of something else as you go along. There is risk of loss.

The poor man could not recover his fortune even though he tried hard enough. Day by day he was turning from poor to poor.

Meanwhile, his throat was parched with thirst. After much searching, the crow found a urn. He went to the pitcher. But he went to the pitcher and saw some water at the bottom of the pitcher. He raised his lips and tried to drink the water. But the water did not reach. But he was not disappointed. The crow thought what to do. The crow noticed that some pebbles were worn around the urn.
