The Humble Teacher: How a Mouse Taught a Lesson to the Mighty Lion
Once upon a time, in the heart of a vast jungle, there lived a mighty lion. He was feared by all the animals, and they would run and hide at the sound of his roar. One day, while the lion was taking a nap, a little mouse accidentally scurried over him, waking him up with a start.
The lion was furious at the mouse and was about to eat him when the little mouse begged for mercy. The mouse said, "Please spare my life, O mighty lion. I am just a small creature and mean no harm to you."
The lion was amused by the mouse's words and decided to spare him. But he warned the mouse never to disturb his sleep again.
A few days later, the lion was caught in a hunter's trap, and he could not free himself. He roared in pain, but nobody came to his aid. The mouse, who had seen the lion's plight, rushed to help him. The mouse climbed up to the trap and gnawed through the ropes, setting the lion free.
The lion was amazed at the mouse's bravery and thanked him for his help. The mouse replied, "I may be small, but I can still help someone in need. Remember, never underestimate anyone based on their size."
The lion was moved by the mouse's lesson and realized that he had been wrong to judge the mouse based on his size. He promised the mouse that he would never harm him again and that he would always be grateful for his help.
From that day on, the lion and the mouse became good friends, and they would often be seen playing and hunting together in the jungle. The lion learned that true strength comes from wisdom and that one should never judge anyone based on their appearance or size.
