The North Wind and the Sun
The importance of treating others gently and warmly, rather than trying to force them with power
💬 The North Wind and the Sun Have a Contest
One day, the North Wind and the Sun were talking in the sky. The North Wind said, "I am stronger!" The Sun smiled and said, "Is that so? Let’s see if we can get that traveler to take off his coat."
🤔 The traveler is wearing a coat. Do you think he is cold? Or hot?
💬 The North Wind Goes Whoosh!
The North Wind tried first. "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The North Wind blew a very strong wind. But the traveler became cold. "So cold, so cold!" The traveler held his coat very tightly.
🤔 When the wind is strong, will the traveler want to take off his coat? Or will he want to keep wearing it even more?
💬 The Sun Shines Warmly
Next, it was the Sun’s turn. The Sun smiled and shone gently. Warm and cozy, warm and cozy. The traveler gradually began to feel warmer. "Ah, it feels so warm." The traveler unbuttoned his coat.
🤔 Now that the traveler is feeling warm and cozy, how do you think he feels?
💬 Gentleness Wins
As the Sun kept shining gently and warmly, the traveler said, "I’m getting hot." Then the traveler took off his coat. The North Wind was surprised. The Sun said, "Sometimes being gentle works better than being forceful."
🤔 Which one’s way made the traveler take off his coat—the North Wind’s or the Sun’s?
