"The Mouse and the Cockroach"
Once upon a time in a small and quiet house, there were two tiny creatures who had a big conflict. They were a mouse and a cockroach.
Every night, they would gather in the house to search for food. The house was filled with delicious treats, but there was a limitation to the amount they could eat. The mouse and the cockroach were both hungry and wanted to get the tastiest food for themselves.
The mouse, known for its intelligence and abilities, took the lead in searching for food. Using its cleverness and quick movements, it would get the large and delicious pieces of cheese, bread, and other food items. However, the cockroach was not far behind. Despite its lack of intelligence, it diligently searched for leftover food and consumed it without hesitation.
One day, the mouse discovered what the cockroach was doing. It became filled with anger and wanted to deny the cockroach any food. It lashed out and said, "This is my house and my food! You need to find your own food and stop interfering with what I've obtained!"
But the cockroach remained unfazed by these words. Instead of responding with resentment, it approached the mouse with humility and said, "Indeed, you are smarter and more orderly than I am. But don't we need to help each other in finding enough food? We shouldn't fight and harbor grudges against each other."
The mouse's conscience was awakened by the cockroach's words. It realized that through unity, they could obtain more food. The mouse thanked the cockroach and resolved to change its ways.
From that day forward, the mouse and the cockroach worked together in their search for food. The mouse used its intelligence to find nutritious food, while the cockroach searched for leftovers and small grains that, although small, made a significant contribution to their partnership. They no longer competed against each other or quarreled.
The days of the mouse and the cockroach became happy and abundant. Through their unity and cooperation, they not only had enough food but also became true friends. They learned the importance of collaboration and generosity.
From then on, the house became a place of peace and unity for the mouse and the cockroach. Their friendship became an example to other creatures, demonstrating the significance of working together and being considerate in facing the challenges they encountered.
