 Two Boys And The Nut

Author : ANJALI WARIER


One day two boys, Ram and Shyam were strolling through the forest. Shyam spotted a hazelnut on the ground. Ram ran quickly to pick it up and he examined it. The hazelnut was much bigger than the usual size of a hazelnut. They both were awestruck seeing a hazelnut the size of pear. The boys thought that it was magical fruit and something magical would happen to them if they ate the nut.

Shyam said, “It is my nut because I was the first to see it. It is mine!” “No, it is mine because I was the first to pick it up” said Ram. They started quarrelling for a long time just for an ordinary hazelnut. Little did they know that a passer-by was listening to their quarrel. The passer-by was hungry too.

When he saw the two boys quarrelling he had a cunning idea to get hold of the hazelnut. He went to the boys and he said to the boys, “Give me the nut. I’ll settle the quarrel.” The passer-by took the nut and cracked it and separated into two parts. He gave one part of the shell to Ram and said, “This half is yours.” He gave the other part of the shell to Shyam and said, “This half is yours.” Then the passer-by quickly ate the fruit seed and said, “The remaining is mine for helping.”

With this the boys were fooled by the passer-by and did not get anything.

Message: When two persons quarrel, a third person always gains.

There are many endangered species in this world, but none of them come close to the verge of extinction that the northern white rhino is on. There are only two of these species left on the whole planet. They are guarded 24/7 each day in Kenya! But the question is, can scientists save them? Let's see! In the 1950's, there were 2000 northern white rhinos, but now only two females remain. Their names are Najin and Fatu. The gravestones in this conservancy are memorials for the rhinos that were poached since 2004. Najin and Fatu are under the threat of being poached for their horns which has a market in the Middle East. A kilo of northern white rhino horns can go up to 6,500$ USD! Now these two female rhinos can do nothing but accept what fate poachers have put them into. But scientists believe that they may have found a solution! They say"Right now is a ...

Those Were The Days ... Author : SHRIYANS CHANDAN MOHAPATRA

  Those Were The Days ... Author : SHRIYANS CHANDAN MOHAPATRA Do you wish you could return to moments from your past? Yes, I wish I could return memories from your past as those were the days. Many people say that growing up is the best part of life. But I disagree. Growing up means a smaller margin for errors, a necessity for seriousness and I just dislike all of those. The only positive about growing up Is total freedom. No one to stop from chasing your dreams except you yourself. But then you need to mature and grow responsible, along with still obeying everyone; that is an expectation that others have of you. Meanwhile when you are a child; a chick whose egg has just cracked, your mistakes are turned into a laughingstock and your naughtiness are converted into a chance to snuggle into your mother’s safe hands. I tell you those were the days. I sometimes feel as if I would give everything I have, even if it means my life to go back in time. Sometimes I feel if only everyone...
