FACE THE MYSTERY WITHOUT FEAR

 

 

A boy was playing near some hedges laden with berries that looked juicy and attractive. The boy’s mouth watered and he licked his lips.

So he began to gather the berries. He thought of enjoying them after collecting some more berries. Just then, he was stung by a sharp nettle. Soon a rash appeared on his hand and he suffered from acute pain.

 

At once the boy left the collection of berries in the ground and ran home to his mother and narrated to her everything tearfully. Sobbing hard he said, “Mom, I touched them lightly but they stung me hard.”

The mother smiled and caressing him said, “They stung you because you touched them lightly. If you had held them firmly they won’t have hurt you. Dare to face anything even in your mysterious situation.”
