19. The Sack of Life #Inspirational Moral Stories
One morning, Rachel was playing in the garden. Her father
came there with a huge sack and said, "Let's play a game. Fill this sack
with pebbles." When Rachel had filled the sack, he asked her, "Is the
sack full?" Rachel said, "Yes, Papa!" Then he shook the sack and
asked her to fill it with stones. The stones entered the empty spaces between
the pebbles. Then Rachel's father asked her, "Is the sack full?" She
said, "Yes!" Her father shook the sack again and asked her to pour
some sand. The sand filled the empty spaces between the stones. Her father
said, "If we had put in the sand first, there would have been no space for
the pebbles and the stones. Love, friendship, courage and morality are the
important aspects of life. The rest is just sand. Choose carefully."
Rachel had learnt a valuable lesson that day.
Moral of the Story: The moral of the story is that in life, it's essential to
prioritize and value the important aspects like love, friendship, courage, and
morality, as these fill the meaningful spaces in our lives, while material or
less significant things are like "sand" that can fill the gaps but
don't hold the same importance.
