46. Pearl in the Reef Garden #Inspirational Moral Stories
Pearl was walking home from school. On the way, she saw a
path that led to a meadow. She walked on until she reached an arched gateway.
Beyond the gateway was the most beautiful garden Pearl had ever seen. The sweet
smell of the flowers lured her further into the meadow. Bees buzzed, birds chirped
and butterflies fluttered by. Pearl walked on until she reached a lake. She looked
at her reflection in the lake. Just then, someone from underwater beckoned to
her, "Come; play with us. There are many things to see here." Pearl
was staring into the face of a mermaid. She was thrilled! She dived right in.
The mermaid said, "Hold my hand," and swam with Pearl around a little
reef garden. Just then, a voice called, "Wake up, Pearl! You'll be late
for school." Pearl woke up. There was no mermaid or reef garden. She had
been dreaming!
Moral of the Story: The story emphasizes the power of imagination and the beauty
of nature, even in our dreams.
