THE BOY WHO CRIED WOLF

Sam, a little boy who lives in a small village in the mountains , takes the sheep up to the mountains everyday.  

His life isn’t very exciting and he starts looking for things that will make his life more exciting. One day , he happens to have an idea:  He runs down to the village and shouts “Help” , “Help “, asks for help telling people that the bad wolf is in the forest and so the sheep are in danger.  The villagers believe in him , they run up to the mountain but once they get there, they see that there is no wolf and the sheep are OK.  He repeats lying to the villagers twice and makes fun of them. One day, the wolf really comes out of the forest.  Sam is terrified. He runs down the village to ask for help.  Guess what happens ? Do you think that the villagers believe him this time ?

This story reminds us the readers the fact that: Noone believes in liars, even when they tell the truth.  So, please stay away from lying people and ofcourse to yourself.
