A Story About Hare And Tortoise

Here is a story about hare and tortoise. Once the animal decided to have a fair in the forest. There were lots of attractions and prizes! There was a big prize to be won for cake baking and both the hare and the tortoise wanted to enter that contest. the next day the hare saw the tortoise going to the library.

It asked, “why are you going there?” The tortoise said, “I want to get recipe book for cakes.” It laughed at tortoise. it could not understand why the tortoise starts thinking about the cake so soon. There was plenty of time! But the tortoise did not believe in postponing anything. It chose a good recipe, made a list of things needed, bought them from the market and baked the cake well in advance It decorated the cake and did a very good job since there was plenty of time. But the fare did noting. It spent its time in playing with friends. it woke up just two days before the contest. it went to the market to get the things but there was no flour and no sugar in the shop! Hare had to beg the fox, which was in-charge of the shop to somehow get these things. the next day it got them but at a higher price! Then it thought of a recipe for a quick and easy cake. It somehow manged to bake the cake but it was not fluffy but flat and lumpy! In a hurry something was forgotten to be added. there was no time to bake another cake. It had to sit and cry and the cake of the tortoise was declared the best. the hare was sad and disappointed to watch the tortoise carrying away the prize proudly.

Thus, this story teaches us a lesson that we should not postpone things. We should not wait for the best time. We should utilize every moment of time resource because time cost can not be purchased.
