This is my first story which I heard many times in my childhood, still remember and will never forget.
A rabbit and tortoise once had a competition to reach some destination at far away place. Rabbit thought that it could defeat the tortoise, as it would run faster with all its might. On the other hand, a tortoise can’t run, it just walks slowly, few steps at a time. Knowing that rabbit was out of mind, tortoise agreed.
Rabbit jumped and ran, and in few minutes it disappeared from the tortoise’s sight. Tortoise kept on moving with its slow steps. After some time, rabbit thought to take some rest, as it would defeat the tortoise in a matter of few minutes, as it took rest, it fell asleep.
When tortoise crossed the rabbit sleeping, it smiled and kept moving, and after some time it reached the destination. When the rabbit awoke, it ran and ran — what, what it saw, tortoise reached earlier; rabbit had lost the game.
