    Once upon a time, in a quiet village lived two friends, Ramesh and Suresh. They were good friends but Suresh was a bit lazy while Ramesh was very hardworking.

    One day, Suresh said to Ramesh, 'Ramesh, I need your help. Help me find a job.' Ramesh thought it would be a good opportunity to teach Suresh a fun lesson.

    Ramesh said, 'Alright Suresh, meet me at the river bank at 5 in the morning.' The next morning, Suresh somehow managed to reach the river bank. There he found Ramesh bathing a goat.

    Surprised, Suresh asked, 'Ramesh, what are you doing?' Ramesh replied with a smile, 'I'm bathing this goat in the hope that it will turn into a cow and start giving milk.'

    Suresh was shocked and said, 'That's impossible!' Ramesh smiled and said, 'Then how can you hope to get a job without putting in any effort?'

    Suresh understood Ramesh's point and decided that he would start working hard. Slowly, he began to put in effort.

    Suresh never forgot the lesson that Ramesh taught him. He often shared his story with the village children to inspire them.
