★ A Story On Honesty Is The Best Policy :-
Ram would go in the forest every day and chop trees for wood. ... One day, while chopping a tree near the river, the ax slipped out of his hand and fell into the river. The river was very deep and since that was his only ax, he worried.
He prayed to God for his ax. He prayed so sincerely that God actually appeared! When He asked Ram what the problem was, he told Him the whole episode. God, then put his hand into the river and took out a silver ax. The woodcutter said it wasn’t his. God continued looking and then found a golden ax.
The woodcutter refused to accept it too! What good is a golden ax to a poor woodcutter? He needed his iron ax. God finally smiled and pulled out his iron ax. The woodcutter was extremely happy and thanked God for finding his ax. God was very happy with his honesty. So, he rewarded him by giving him the silver and the golden ax too! The woodcutter was overwhelmed and jumped with joy!
