Once upon a time, there was a beautiful jungle. In that jungle there lived a lion. No matter how much he ate the lion was always hungry. One day, the lion decided to go talk to someone wise and find out why he is always hungry.
So, the next day he began his journey. He met a wise old elephant. He asked, “O wise old elephant, do you know why am I always hungry?” The elephant replied, “O lion! you must go to the highest mountains and ask them”.
The lion went to the highest mountains and asked them, “O mountains! can you tell me why am I always hungry?” The mountains replied, ”O lion! you must go to the deepest caves and ask them.
So the lion went to the deepest caves and asked them, “O deepest caves! can you tell me why am I so hungry all the time”. The caves told him, “go to the fly’s home”. The lion did not understand why they told him to go to the fly’s home.
When the wisest people could not give him an answer, he wondered how a small fly could answer. He went to the fly’s home and asked him” O fly! Can you tell me why I am always hungry?” The fly answered “You have come so far without eating anything to know why you are always hungry but you did not feel hungry all these days while visiting the wise old elephant, the highest mountains and the deepest caves”. You are feeling so hungry because when you see something you want to eat it. Do not be greedy. The lion immediately said, “I am really sorry because I thought how can a small fly give me answers when even the wisest cannot answer? You have taught me that anyone can be wise irrespective of their size or age. The fly accepted his apology. The lion ruled the jungle wisely for many years.
The End
