The Crystal Ball – Short Moral Stories in English

The Crystal Ball – Short Moral Stories in English:-Once upon a time, in an old country, there was a small village where the people lived a peaceful life by farming. There was a boy named Veera who lived in the village with his family. His grandfather had taught him to always follow good manners and to never be tempted to fly away from the path of righteousness.

Veera took care of the family sheep and every day he would take them to the nearby forest area to graze. One day, while he was walking in the forest, he found a golden crystal ball near a tree. As soon as he picked up the ball, the tree started to speak, “You are lucky! It’s a magic ball that can give you anything you want.”

Veera, being a good and obedient boy, did not feel any curiosity about the ball. He stored the ball in his house and did not ask anything from it. He shared about the ball with his only friend, but that was it.

However, one day, Veera’s friend stole the ball and told the villagers about its magic power. All the villagers gathered around the boy and started asking the ball for their wishes. One old man asked for money, one asked for gold, and one asked for diamonds. The ball granted all their wishes.

Everyone in the village was happy with their newfound wealth, but slowly, the peace in the village started to fade away. The people’s hearts and nature changed, and they stopped working in the fields. There was no one to farm and produce food, so everyone started to face the problem of starvation.

Finally, the men of the village decided to solve the food problem and returned the ball to Veera. He asked the ball to reclaim the village, and everything that the ball had given vanished. The village people realized their mistake and started to work again. The peace and harmony were restored, and the village became famous once again.

From that day on, Veera and his grandfather’s teachings were appreciated and followed by everyone in the village. The magic ball remained in the boy’s house, and nobody ever tempted to fly away from their righteous path.
