As he dozed
off, a tiny mouse scurried across his paw. Startled by the sudden movement, the lion woke up
and, in a fit of anger, captured the mouse. Trembling with fear, the mouse begged, “Please let
me go! I may be small, but I promise I can help you someday.” The lion, intrigued by the
mouse's bravery and sincerity, decided to release him, thinking that such a small creature
could never be of any real assistance.
A few days later, the lion was wandering through the forest when he found himself ensnared
in a hunter’s net. Despite his powerful roars and struggles, he couldn’t escape the tight ropes
that held him captive. The forest echoed with his frustrated roars, reaching the ears of the tiny
mouse who happened to be nearby. Recognizing the lion's distress, the mouse hurried to the
scene.
Upon seeing the lion trapped, the mouse sprang into action. With determination and quick
bites, the mouse chewed through the ropes of the net. Though it took some effort, the mouse
managed to free the lion from his predicament. The lion was astonished and deeply grateful
to the mouse for rescuing him from such a dire situation.
Overwhelmed with gratitude, the lion said, “I never thought that someone as small as you
could be so helpful. I am forever grateful for your kindness.” The mouse, happy to have
helped his friend, replied, “I told you that even a small creature can make a big difference.”
From that day on, the lion and the mouse became the best of friends.
The story of the lion and the mouse teaches us an important lesson: no act of kindness is too
small, and every creature, no matter how small, has the potential to make a significant
impact. The lion learned that true friendship and help can come from the most unexpected
places, and he valued his new friend more than ever.
