Although I have heard many interesting
0:02
traditional stories. One of them is
0:04
special and hence worth mentioning. This
0:07
story is about a father who was having
0:12
uh sons who used to fight with each
0:14
other a lot. So down and dejected the
0:18
father devised a plan and he brought
0:20
four uh sticks and gave one stick to
0:24
each of his sons and he asked them to
0:26
break it and they were able to break it
0:28
very easily. And after that he gave them
0:30
a bunch of four sticks and and told them
0:33
to break it. But they were unable to
0:35
break it because of the combined
0:37
strength of those four sticks. So then
0:41
he told his sons that this is the moral
0:44
of the life. If you remain together the
0:47
circumstances or the adversaries will
0:49
not be able to break you. But in case
0:52
you remain separated then in that case
0:57
uh success will evade you because the
1:00
circumstances will able to break you
1:02
because during your tough times it's
1:03
your near and dear ones who always
1:05
provides provide you with unabated
1:07
support. So this is the moral of the
1:09
story and I knew about this story from a
1:13
long time and uh my grandmother told me
1:16
when I was in second standard and that
1:19
uh story brought up paradigm shift in my
1:22
thinking because after before listening
1:24
this story I used to fight a lot with my
1:27
younger sister but now I do not fight uh
1:30
much and uh uh so this story is an
1:34
integral part of my life and the good
1:37
moments I have had with my family
1:38
members after listening to this story
1:41
would always remain etched in my
