Man
Once in village lived a little boy who was very
athletic and for whom winning was most important.

One day, that boy join in running competition


held in village. In that competition he competed with
other two young boys. Race commenced, crowd
cheered and waved at him. Boy called on his
determination and strength, he won and came first.
Little boy felt proud.
Later second race was called and in this
race two young and fit challenger came forward
and run in competition with little boy. Once
again little boy finished first. Crowd was
amazed and cheered and waved at that boy.
There an old man was watching all this. Little boy who
felt proud and more important and started to plead,
“Another race..!! Another race..!!”

Seeing this wise old man stepped forward and with him he
presented two new challengers. Among new challengers
one was an frail old lady and other was blind man.
Little boy was confused and asked, “What’s
this?? this is no race..!!

Old man replied, “Race..!!”


After all were set on starting line. Race started
and boy was only one to finish that race,
leaving two challengers standing at the
starting line.

Little boy raised his arms in delight but to his


surprise this time no one from crowd was
cheering and everyone was just looking at
him silently.
“What happened?? Why are people not
cheering??”, little boy asked old man.

Old man replied, “Race again but this


time finish altogether..”
Little boy thought for a while and then again went to
starting line and stood in middle of old lady and
blind man. Then he took both of them by hand and
started to walk slowly and at last crossed that finish
line.

This time at end of race crowd smiled and cheered


and waved at end of race.
Little boy felt proud but still didn’t
understand why crowd was not
cheering him before but now when all
three of them finished race together.
So he asked old man about it.
Old man replied, “Little boy, in this
race you have won much more
than what you won in any other
race..!! You have won people’s
respect..“
