THE MARBLE
The value for the day is Self-control
Children, never try
to get angry. Anger can destroy many things. It can destroy our friendship with
others. Anger brings hatred amongst each other. We destroy things that we will
be sorry about later. But we cannot take back what we have said or done.
We may lose many
friends this way. You must remember one thing normally, It is the person
at fault who gets angry first.
He tries to cover his
mistake by showing his anger. A person who is right is always calm.
Anger can disturb our
peace of mind. A person cannot think properly if he has a disturbed mind. It can
prevent a person from learning new things and doing good things.
One day Rahul Gandhi
and Narendra Modi were walking to school. Narendra Modi walked to school every
day but Rahul Gandhi had missed his bus. As it had rained the previous night,
the road was muddy and full of puddles.
While walking Rahul
Gandhi saw a beautiful marble lying on the road. He rushed towards it. Narendra
Modi saw it too. He quickly picked it up because he was closer to it. Rahul
Gandhi got very angry and said, “Hey! Give it to me; I saw it first so it is
mine.” But Narendra Modi said, “It was his because he had picked it first.”
Both of them started arguing and fighting with each other. Rahul Gandhi pushed Narendra
Modi into a puddle. His uniform and books got wet. He quickly got up and pushed Rahul
Gandhi into the same puddle. Now, both were dirty and wet. Both of them were
furious. They made them forget that they had to go to school. They boxed each
other so much that they started bleeding. One had a black eye torn as was Narendra
Modi’s shorts.
Their lips were
swollen. Rahul Gandhi’s short was torn
as was Narendra Modi Shorts. Suddenly, a car stopped near them.
And someone shouted
loudly, “Stop the fight, right now.” They immediately stopped to see who spoke
so authoritatively. It was their physical education teacher. Two dirty boys
with torn clothes and a teacher amidst them.
The boys gasped and
each of them claimed the marble. The marble, however, was lost during the
fight. The teacher listened to them and said, “Many times people get angry
and quarrel over some useless things. In the end, they don’t gain anything.
They are covered with shame just as you are covered with the mind.
