Long, long ago, there was a debate in the world between the Wind and the Sun. They argued about who was more powerful and could have a greater impact on people’s lives.
The North Wind was full of confidence, believing it was the strongest force. It could blow strong winds, bringing cold and wintry weather. The North Wind thought that people would be afraid because of its power.
The Sun, on the other hand, was a symbol of warmth and light. It believed it was the greatest force because it could illuminate the Earth, bringing warmth and happiness to people.
To settle their dispute, the North Wind and the Sun decided to have a competition. They chose a person who was taking a walk as the subject of their contest.
The North Wind went first and showed off its strength. It blew a strong gust of wind, trying to blow the person’s coat away. However, the person just held onto their coat even tighter, not letting the North Wind succeed.
Next, it was the Sun’s turn. The Sun emitted warm sunlight, shining upon the person. Soon, the person felt very hot and began to take off their coat.
Both the North Wind and the Sun saw the result. The Sun won the competition because its warmth and kindness overcame the North Wind’s cold and bluster.
This story tells us that the power of kindness and warmth is always greater than coldness and threats. It encourages people to treat others with kindness and goodwill because such attitudes can change the world. It’s a bedtime story full of wisdom and warmth that teaches children about caring and kindness.
