Once upon a time in a dense forest, there stood a majestic,
old tree. This tree had seen countless seasons change and had become very wise.
Many birds called the tree their home, building nests in its sturdy branches
and finding shelter in its shade.
One bright morning, two young birds, Chatter and Cheep, were
perched on a branch, watching the world below. They were full of energy and
curiosity, always eager to explore. Despite the warnings of the wise tree, they
often ventured far from their nests, flying high and wide, taking unnecessary
risks.
The wise tree often said, "Dear birds, life is a
precious gift. While exploring is wonderful, you must always be cautious and
aware of your surroundings. Not every place is safe, and not every creature is
friendly."
Chatter and Cheep would listen, but their excitement would
quickly take over, and they would fly off without heeding the advice. One day,
while flying far from the tree, they saw a beautiful, shimmering lake. It was a
sight to behold, with crystal-clear water and lush green plants surrounding it.
"This is amazing! Let's dive down and drink from the
lake," Chatter exclaimed.
"Yes, it looks so inviting," Cheep agreed.
As they swooped down towards the lake, they didn't notice
the cunning fox hiding in the bushes nearby, waiting for an opportunity. Just
as they were about to land, the fox leaped out, trying to catch them. Startled,
Chatter and Cheep managed to escape by a feather’s breadth and flew back to the
safety of the wise tree, their hearts pounding in fear.
The wise tree, seeing their terror, gently said, "I
warned you, little ones. The world is full of beauty, but also danger. It's
important to be brave, but wisdom and caution should guide your bravery. Learn
to listen and understand the value of advice."
Chatter and Cheep, humbled by their narrow escape, nodded.
"We understand now. We will be more careful and listen to your
wisdom," they promised.
From that day on, Chatter and Cheep still explored the
world, but they did so with a newfound respect for the wise tree's advice. They
learned to balance their adventurous spirits with caution and awareness,
ensuring their safety and enjoying the beauty of the world without unnecessary
risks.
Moral: Bravery must be balanced with wisdom. Always heed
wise advice to avoid unnecessary dangers.
