Although I have heard many interesting traditional stories, one of them is special and hence worth mentioning, this story is about a father who was having four sons who used to fight with each other a lot. So, down and dejected, their father devised a plan and he brought four sticks and gave one stick to each of his sons and he asked them to break it and they were able to break it very easily. And after that, he gave them a bunch of four sticks and told them to break it.
But they were unable to break it because of the combined strength of those four sticks. So, then he told his sons that this is the moral of life. If you remain together, the circumstances or the adversities will not be able to break you.
But in case you remain separated, then in that case, success will evade you because the circumstances will be able to break you. Because during your tough times, it’s your near and dear ones who always provide you with unabated support. So, this is the moral of the story.
And I knew about this story from a long time and my grandmother told me when I was in second standard and that story brought a paradigm shift in my thinking because before listening to this story, I used to fight a lot with my younger sister but now I do not fight much. So, this story is an integral part of my life and the good moments I have had with my family members after listening to this story would always remain etched in my memories.
