The rabbit and the turtle
Be patient, not in a hurry
Once upon a time, a rabbit and a turtle lived in a forest. The rabbit was known for his speed, while the turtle was known for his slow and steady pace.
One day, the rabbit was boasting about his speed to the other animals in the forest. The turtle, who was nearby, overheard the rabbit's bragging and decided to challenge him to a race.
The rabbit, feeling confident in his abilities, accepted the challenge, and the race was set for the next day. The other animals in the forest gathered around to watch the race, eager to see who would come out on top.
As soon as the race began, the rabbit took off at lightning speed, leaving the turtle far behind. The rabbit was so far ahead that he decided to take a nap under a tree, thinking that he had plenty of time to rest and still win the race.
Meanwhile, the turtle continued at his steady pace, never stopping or slowing down. He may have been slow but determined and focused on the finish line.
When the rabbit awoke from his nap, he realized he had underestimated the turtle's tenacity and determination. To his surprise, the turtle was just a few feet away from the finish line, while the rabbit was still far behind.
In a last-ditch effort to win the race, the rabbit sprinted toward the finish line, but it was too late. The turtle crossed the finish line first, winning the race and proving that slow and steady do win the race.
The other animals in the forest cheered for the turtle, and the rabbit learned a valuable lesson about humility and the importance of perseverance. From that day on, the rabbit and the turtle became good friends, and they often went on adventures together, always remembering the lesson they learned from their race.
