Slow and steady wins the race completing story

 


Slow and steady wins the race:

Once there lived a hare in a forest. There also lived a tortoise. The hare is a very speedy animal. It can run very fast. On the other hand, the tortoise moves very slowly. It has a heavy shell on its back. Its legs are short. So, it can't move as fast as other animals. But the hare was very proud of his speed and cut a joke at a tortoise. 

One day, the hare challenged the tortoise in a race. The tortoise accepted his offer. They fixed a date. On the fixed date the competition began. The hare began to run very fast and looked back again and again. He saw that the tortoise was far behind him. So he decided to rest for a while under a nearby tree. He began to rest and suddenly fell asleep. On the other hand, the tortoise was walking continuously. On the way, he found the hare was sleeping. When the hare woke up he saw the tortoise had already gone to the winning post. The hare became very sad. He realized his mistake.


Moral of the story:

"We should be great through our deeds not by tall talks."
