    In a small village of Vrindavan, lived a cute and mischievous boy named Krishna. His dark curly hair and twinkling eyes brought joy to everyone around him. But he had a peculiar habit - he loved butter!

    Krishna's love for butter was renowned in the village. His antics to steal butter from the homes of the village women were both amusing and exasperating. His charm made it hard for anyone to stay angry at him for long.

    One day, Krishna heard about the delicious butter stored in the house of a village woman named Radha. He decided to pay her a visit, not just for the butter, but also because he found Radha very kind and beautiful.

    Krishna sneaked into Radha's house with the agility of a cat. But Radha was clever. She had heard about Krishna's butter thefts, and had hidden her butter pot high up on a shelf.

    Spotting the butter pot, Krishna's eyes sparkled with excitement. He began to stack pots and pans to reach the butter. But just as he was about to grab it, Radha walked in.

    Krishna froze, expecting Radha to be angry. But instead, she laughed, charmed by his audacity. She scolded him gently and then gave him a fresh pot of butter, making him promise not to steal again.

    Krishna promised, but his love for butter was too strong. The very next day, he heard about a giant butter pot at the house of another villager, Gopal. His eyes twinkled with mischief again.

    Krishna's attempt at Gopal's house, however, was not as successful. Gopal was a stern man who disliked mischief. As Krishna tried to reach the butter pot, Gopal caught him red-handed.

    Gopal was not as forgiving as Radha. He marched Krishna to his mother, Yashoda, and told her about Krishna's mischief. Yashoda was disappointed and decided to teach Krishna a lesson.

    Yashoda scolded Krishna and told him that stealing was wrong. She explained that if he asked for butter politely, the villagers would happily share it with him. Krishna hung his head, feeling ashamed.

    The next day, Krishna decided to follow his mother's advice. He walked to Radha's house and asked her for some butter. Radha was surprised but pleased and gave him a generous helping.

    Word quickly spread in the village about Krishna's change of behavior. The villagers were happy to give Krishna butter when he asked for it politely, and they praised Yashoda for teaching him good manners.

    Even Gopal, who had been stern with Krishna, was impressed. He gave Krishna a pat on the back and gifted him a pot of his special homemade butter, making Krishna's eyes light up with joy.

    Krishna's love for butter never diminished, but he never stole again. He realized that it was much more satisfying to receive butter as a gift than to take it without permission.

    This change in Krishna brought joy to Yashoda. She was proud of her son for learning an important lesson and for becoming a better person. Krishna's respect for others increased, and so did their love for him.

    From then on, Krishna's adventures in Vrindavan continued, but without any mischief. He became a beloved figure in the village, and his stories of love, respect, and butter spread far and wide.

    Radha and Gopal, along with the other villagers, often shared a laugh over Krishna's past mischiefs. They admired his charm and innocence, but they were happier with his newfound respect for others.
