Once upon a time, there lived two friends H & M in a city called Alfea.

They travels very far everyday overcoming all the obstacles to earn a livelihood. They do all types of works ranging from small to big - designing usable products from recycled waste to selling eatables,hand-made goods etc.

One day when they are returning home,they heard a voice. It says - "Young Men, I am the fairy of life. I am impressed by your dedication, hard work and commitment towards your life. I am here to help you."

A strong wind blows paving two paths infront of H & M. The fairy said - "You are seeing two paths infront of you. One path leads you to success while other path leads you to failure. The choice is yours. Choose wisely."


One path is looking very beautiful adorned with flowers, humming of birds, bright sun and peaceful atmosphere while the other path is looking very scary with crooked trees, howls of animals and darkness.

"This must be the path for success.", H said pointing to the beautiful path.

"No. This must be the path for success.", M said pointing to the scary path.

After thinking for a while, M suggested that both of them should follow their own instincts. So, H headed into the beautiful path while M headed into the scary path.


As M walked through the path, he got drenched in heavy pour of rain. He ran as fast as he can and reached a place where there is a bright sun. Initially, the sun warmed him up but after a moment, Sunlight become unbearable. Again,he walked as fast as he can and reached a cold place. Soon the cold become unbearable just like the sun. At last he reached a place which looks like the beautiful path he had seen earlier.


On the other side, As H walked into the beautiful path, darkness began to swallow him. Soon the humming of birds is replaced by howls of animals. The bright sunlight is replaced by a chilling cold. He got trapped there unable to find the way out.

Then the fairy of life appears and congratulated M on choosing the right path which lead him to success and explained H that whatever comes easy goes easy.

M chooses to work hard to achieve success while H chooses the easiest way.

M & H are our Mind and Heart. Our Heart always wants to find a shortcut or the easiest way to complete a task while our Mind always think logically.

We must balance both of them to lead a peaceful life.

Moral :

All that glitters is not gold.

Hardwork never fails.
