Pride hath a fall



The Oak tree always thought that he was far stronger than the reeds. He said to himself "I stand upright in a storm. I don't bend my head in fear every time the wind blows. But these reeds are really so weak."
That very night blew a storm and the mighty oak tree was uprooted.
"Good God!" sighed the reeds, "our way is better. We bend but we don't break."



MORAL : Pride hath a fall

  1. If we turn the pages of the history, we see that kings lost their kingdoms, aspirants got distracted from their Spiritual quest, etc for only only reason - Pride in their heart. There should not pride of any kind. Otherwise it leads to only one destination. That's fall.
