that it would harm you, I leave it now to you.
That is your opinion. Everybodys opinion is
correct. The thing is, whatever we do in our
life, it now depends on how we handle and
with it.
Do you understand, children?

Yes maam!

Children, do you want to hear a story?

Okay, this morning, I will tell you a very
good story about a poor fisherman

The title of this story is The White Fish and
the Good Fisherman. This is cut from the
original story by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm.
Its theme was used in
The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish, a 1835
poem by Aleksandr Pushkin.

When Pedro went home, he went home with

nothing. So, his wife again got angry again.
What did he do then? Why?

When Pedro was in the sea,

he saw a very big white fish.

Pedro was afraid when he

saw the fish because the fish
can talk and it talked to him.
The fish was pleading Pedro
to set him free, to put him back to the sea.
It promised Pedro that he would give a
magic spear as a reward.

Yes he did. He put back the

fish in the sea, and went home.

And so he went back to sea, hoping that he

killing the fish.

fellowmen, especially to the needy ones, God will
repay you for your generosity a thousand folds.
