The Tortoise and the Hare

Once upon a time, there was a race between a swift hare and a slow tortoise. The hare was so confident in his speed that he laughed at the tortoise, who was plodding along steadily.

“You will never win, old fellow,” said the hare. “I’ll bet you a race, and I’ll win in a snap!”

The tortoise accepted the bet, and the race began. The hare took off at a full sprint, leaving the tortoise far behind. He thought, “I have plenty of time to take a nap and still win the race.”

So the hare lay down under a tree and fell asleep. Meanwhile, the tortoise, though slow, never gave up. He kept on plodding along, step by step, until he finally reached the finish line. The tortoise had won the race!

When the hare woke up and saw the tortoise celebrating at the finish line, he was amazed. “How could you win?” he asked.

The tortoise replied, “Slow and steady wins the race.”

The hare realized that he had underestimated the tortoise’s determination and perseverance. From that day on, he learned to respect his opponents and never to underestimate anyone.

And so, the moral of the story is: “Slow and steady wins the race.”
