A Day Dreamer Story For 2nd Year

Once upon a time there lived a farmer in a village. He had a daughter who was very imaginative. She was unhappy with life and often took refuge in her day dreaming. Once her father gave her a bucket full of milk and asked her to sell it in the market. On the way, her day dreaming started working. Her imaginative flight took her into a prosperous future.

           She thought that the market would be crowded with the people and milk would be sold like hot cakes. In this way she would be able to earn a handsome amount of money. This money would enable her father to start a business. The business would flourish gradually and they would become prosperous within no time. She was advancing toward the market, absorbed in her purple thoughts. She was completely forgetful of her surroundings.

           She thought that her wealth would make her life glamorous. Costly and colourful dresses would add to her beauty and she would spend a luxurious life. Thus, every handsome and rich youngman of the area would be impressed by her wealth and beauty. There would be a lot of marriage proposals for her but she would turn down these proposals. While saying this, she shook her head unintentionally. As she did so, the bucket full of milk fell on the ground and all the milk spilt out of it. This loss brought her back from her day dreaming. She realized her foolishness and cursed herself a lot. But realizing this it is useless to cry over spilt milk, she returned home sadly.

Moral:

1)         Do not build castles in the air.

2)         There is no use of crying over the split milk
