The Lion and the Mouse - Kindness is never wasted

The Lion and the Mouse

"Sometimes, even the smallest among us can make the biggest difference. Let me tell you how a tiny mouse saved a mighty lion."

Once upon a time, in a dense jungle, a great lion was taking his afternoon nap.
A playful little mouse ran across his paw.
The lion woke up with a roar, trapping the mouse under his sharp claws.
"How dare you disturb my rest?" he growled.
The mouse trembled. "Please, mighty lion, spare my life. One day, I might help you in return."
The lion laughed loudly. "You? Help me? Very well, go!"
Days later, hunters trapped the lion in a strong net. The king of the jungle roared for help.
The mouse heard his cries, ran to him, and began nibbling the ropes. Soon, the lion was free.
"You were right, little one," the lion said. "Even the smallest friend can be the greatest help."

Moral:
"Kindness is never wasted."
