English Moral Stories :
Once upon a time, in the heart of the African savannah, there lived a clever and cunning jackal named Jinx. Jinx was known far and wide for his intelligence and wit, but he was also known for his deceitful nature. He often used his intelligence to outsmart other animals in the jungle.
One day, as Jinx was wandering through the jungle, he came across a mighty lion named Leo. Leo was the king of the jungle, known for his bravery, strength, and fair rule. The lion’s presence commanded respect and admiration from all the animals.
Jinx, however, was not one to be impressed by bravery alone. He decided to put Leo to the test. With a sly grin, Jinx approached Leo and said, “Your Majesty, I’ve heard many tales of your courage and strength, but I wonder if you possess the intelligence to match your bravery.”
Leo, confident in his abilities, replied, “Of course, I have both courage and intelligence. What do you have in mind, Jinx?”
Jinx hatched a plan and said, “I challenge you to a contest. We will both stand on the edge of the cliff and roar as loud as we can. The one who doesn’t flinch will be declared the winner.”
Leo agreed, and they both made their way to the cliff. As they stood there, Leo took a deep breath and let out an earth-shaking roar. The ground trembled, and birds scattered from the trees. It was a roar that truly showcased his bravery.
Now, it was Jinx’s turn. Instead of roaring, Jinx stepped back and whispered to the wind, “Blow as hard as you can.”
The wind, hearing Jinx’s cunning request, blew with all its might, creating a loud, howling sound. Jinx’s cleverness had created the illusion of a powerful roar, and Leo, thinking Jinx had roared so loudly, flinched in surprise.
Jinx smirked and said, “Your Majesty, it seems that intelligence has triumphed over bravery today. I win.”
Leo, though disappointed, had to admit that Jinx’s trick was indeed clever. He realized that intelligence had its own value, and he commended Jinx for his wit.
The moral of the story is that while bravery is important and admirable, intelligence is equally valuable. In many situations, intelligence can help you find creative solutions, overcome challenges, and achieve success. So, it’s not only about being brave but also about being clever and resourceful when the need arises.
