Short Stories with Moral

In the south of Spain, there was a little town whose individuals were exceptionally cheerful. The children played under the shades of trees in the greenery enclosures of their homes.

A shepherd kid named Nasir remained close to the town with his dad, mother, and grandma. Every morning, he took his crowd of goats up the slopes to locate an appropriate place for them to brush. Toward the evening he would come back with them to the town. Every night his grandma would reveal to him a story - the account of stars. This story extremely intrigued Nasir.

On one of those days, as Nasir was watching his crowd and playing his woodwind, he all of a sudden observed a magnificent light behind a bloom shrubbery. When he moved toward the shrubbery, he saw a straightforward and exceptionally delightful precious stone ball.

The precious stone ball was sparkling like a vivid rainbow. Nasir painstakingly took it in his grasp and turned it around. With astonishing, all of a sudden, he heard a feeble voice originating from the precious stone ball. It stated, "You can make a desire that your heart wants and I will satisfy it."

Nasir couldn't trust that he had really heard a voice. When he ensured that he had heard that voice from the precious stone ball, he was extremely confused. He had such a large number of wishes that he couldn't settle on one specific wish. He said to himself, 'If I wait till tomorrow, I will recall numerous things. At that point, I will make my desire.'

He put the crystal ball in a bag and, assembling the bag, cheerfully came back to the town. He concluded that he would not tell anybody concerning the precious stone ball.

On the next day also, Nasir couldn't decide what to wish for, in light of the fact that he truly had all that he required.

The days passed. However, Nasir was still unable to make his desire. He was extremely happy. The people around him were flabbergasted to see the change in his air. One day, a boy took after Nasir and his herd. The boy holed up behind a tree. Nasir sat in one corner, took out the gem ball and for a couple of minutes took a gander at it. The boy sat tight for the minute when Nasir would sleep.  When Nasir fell snoozing, the boy stole a precious stone ball and ran away.

When he reached the village, he called all the people and demonstrated to them the gem ball. The people took the gem ball in their grasp and turned it around with astonishing. All of a sudden they heard a voice from inside the precious stone ball, which stated, "I can satisfy your desire." One individual took the ball and shouted, "I need one sack brimming with gold." Another took the ball and said boisterously, "I need two chests loaded with adornments." Some of them longed that they would have their own castle with a terrific entryway produced using unadulterated gold, rather than their old houses. Some others longed for sacks loaded with gems.

Every one of their desires was satisfied, yet at the same time, the natives of the town were not cheerful. They were jealous because the individual that had a castle had no gold and the individual that had the gold had no royal residence. Therefore, the residents of the town were furious with each other and quit addressing each other. The garden in the town where kids used to play was no more. There were castles and gold all over. The kids turned out to be appallingly despondent. Just Nasir and his family were cheerful and satisfied. Each morning and evening he would play the flute.

One day the offspring of the town took the precious stone ball to Nasir. The kids said to Nasir, "When we had a little town, we as a whole were cheerful and blissful."

The parents also talked. They stated, "Somehow, every one of us is despondent. The sumptuous castles and adornments just bring us torment."

When Nasir saw that the people were extremely remorseful, he stated, "Despite the fact that the precious stone ball approached me to wish for something, I have not done it up until now. In any case, on the off chance that you truly need everything to come back to its own place, at that point I will wish for it."

Everybody cheerfully agreed. Nasir took the precious stone ball in his grasp, turned it around and longed that the town would turn into the same as it was previously. In a minute, the royal residences vanished, the green greenery enclosures showed up, and a similar old town brimming with trees was there.

By and by the agreed began to live joyfully and the youngsters played under the shade of trees. Nasir proceeded with his mollified life consistently, playing his woodwind at sunset. Its sweet sound was heard all through the wonderful green town.
