Here’s a brief retelling of the story of the lion and the three cows:
Once upon a time, in a lush, green forest, there lived three cows who were the best of friends. They grazed together, played together, and took care of each other. Because they always stayed together, no predator dared to attack them.
One day, a hungry lion spotted the cows and saw a delicious meal in them. However, he knew that as long as the cows were together, he couldn't attack them. The lion decided to use a cunning plan to separate them.
The lion approached the cows one by one, spreading rumors and sowing distrust among them. He whispered to the first cow that the second cow was planning to eat all the grass alone. He then told the second cow that the third cow was saying bad things behind her back. Finally, he told the third cow that the first cow thought she was the best of them all and didn't want to share the meadow.
Slowly but surely, the bond between the cows weakened, and they started grazing in different parts of the forest. Seeing this, the lion knew his plan had worked. One by one, the lion attacked the separated cows and ate them, as they were now easy prey.
The moral of the story is that unity is strength. When the cows were united, they were safe. However, once they allowed the lion to divide them, they fell victim to his cunning plan. This story teaches us the importance of staying united and not letting misunderstandings or rumors break our bonds.
