There is a story about my childhood that I would like to share with you as it gives motivation to children and can improve the self-confidence of grown ups.

       Once upon a time there was a beautiful forest and in that forest there was a small pond with full of green plants. The pond was very beautiful with flowers and green plants and due to that reason lot of animals use to come to the pond for water and fairies use to visit the pond for their entertainment.

One day when a fairy was taking bath in the pond she heard the roars of the animals near the tree. As the shouts came louder, fairy came out of the pond and came to know that all the animals were joking on a little ant and telling that it was very small and useless. They all were powerful and it cannot do any thing compared to them. So, it has to seat behind all of them and not in the first row.

     The ant was crying as all animals were ignoring her. She was upset. Ferries asked the ant why were you crying? The ant replied, ” All my friends believe that I am poor and useless and so I have become alone. What should I do?” The fairy made the ant calm and told all the animals ” the forest is your house and you are all family members of this forest. All of you should live as friends and every one has his own importance and strength to do, no one is useless. Give respect to all as even a small person can show his capacity when real time comes. There is no matter if the ant is small, she also may be useful in difficulty” Then the fairy went her home. All animals had to give little respect to the ant forcefully.

   After few days, a magician and his assistant came to the forest and seat near the pond. They saw lot of animals in the forest and got an idea. The magician wanted to give tribute of 100 animals to his God. The magician thought that he could kill 100 animals easily because many animals were living near pond. He planed to set net near pond to hunt animals tomorrow.

           Ant was scared and run to give this information to all animals. All animals also scared and they could not find any solution. All the animals went to fairy and told their problem. The fairy found a solution and said, “If you all are united then you can fight with the magician” Animals argued ” the magician is very powerful and dangerous, how we can tackle him?” Fairy smiled and called the little ant and said, “Dear Ant, now your time comes to show your capacity, show the art of ants. Tomorrow, when the magician will come, you and your friends will get inside the ear of the magician and will start biting his ear. Because of biting he will become mad and loss his balance and fall on the ground. Then you all animals can pounce on him and kill him. After then all of you will be out of danger” They liked the idea of the fairy and thanked her.

    Next day when the magician came and started doing his job, all the ants went inside the ear of the magician and followed the plan that suggested by the fairy. They got success to defeat the magician. Everyone gave respect to the ant as because of only ant, all the animals could kill the magician. Ant was happy, as all animals became her friends.

  After some times, the fairy came to forest, all of the animals welcomed the fairy. And accepted with happiness that even small animal has the big power and never treats anybody as useless of weak.

       So my friend, this story is not only for the children or for the student, the moral of the story is helpful for the people those have over confidence. But thing is that who will understand that I am in over confidence. Any way don’t under estimate any body. Even small person can prove his capacity and can show his intelligence. I hope that this story may help at least one person.

Even small person can prove his capacity and can show his intelligence. This is happened in science research.  Most of the scientist passed through this situation. Their colleague might be ignoring them, but after that they proved their research.
