The Empty Pot Once upon a time, an emperor needed to select a successor to his throne. The emperor was old and had no children. Because he loved flowers and plants, he decided to call the children in the kingdom and gave cach a seed. He said that the child who could show the best results within six months would win the contest and she/he would become the next to wear the crown. Every child in the kingdom wanted to win the competition. There was a huge crowd of children in the palace on the day when the emperor gave the seeds. Each child returned home with one seed. One of the children was Jhrunk. He was a good gardener, even people said that he was the best young gardener in his village. He carefully carried the emperor's seed, and when he got home he put it into a pot and tried to plant it properly. One week later, Jhronk-another child-an-nounced that his seed was sprouting through the soil. Jhranky was a girl who said that a tiny plant had emerged from her pot. Then many other kids into a tiny plant. Jhrunk was puzzled-none of these said the same that the seed had changed the form children could grow plants as well as him! But Jhrunk's seed did not grow. Jhrunk was confused-what was wrong? He carefully repotted his seed into a new pot. He changed the method, but still his seed did not grow. Six months passed. The children had to bring their plants to the palace. Jhronk, Jhranky and other children cleaned their pots. Then they prepared themselves by dressing in their finest clothes. Some mothers or fathers walked along side their children to hold the plants. "What will I do?', Jhrunk asked his parents. "My seed wouldn't grow. My pot is empty. You did the best you could do,' said his father. Thrunk, just bring your pot to the emperor," said his mother, 'and tell the real thing. It was the best you could do. Jhrunk carried his empty pot to the palace. He felt a shame, but he agreed to what his parents said. It was the best thing he could do. He had tried his best. At the palace, all the children lined up in rows. They brought their blossoming plants. Then the em-peror checked the plants one by one. When he came to Jhrunk, he scowled even more and said, "What is it? You brought me an empty pot? If you are pleased, Your Majesty,' said Jhrunk, 'I tried the best. I planted your seed with the best soil. I kept and I watched it everyday. When the seed didn't grow, I repotted it in a new soil. I even repotted it again. But it didn't grow. I'm sorry, Jhrunk hang his head. Hmm,' said the emperor. 'I should choose you as my successor.' He continued. Everybody was sur-prised. But then the emperor said, 'I don't know where all these children got their seed. There is no way anything could grow the seed I gave for the contest. I had boiled all the seeds. And he smiled at Jhrunk and said, "You are the only child honest enough to return with an empty pot. Who participated in the compitition?

The Legend of the Crying Stone In the past, on a hill far from the country, there lived a poor widow and her only daughter. Her daughter was really beautiful, yet lazy. She did not want to help her mother at all. Moreover, she was also really spoiled, her mother must fulfil whatever she wanted. One day, the woman and her daughter went to the market. The beautiful daughter wore her best clothes and walked in front of her mother. She did not walk side by side with her mother as she felt ashamed. Everyone looked at her and was amazed by her beauty. "Hi girl, you look so beautiful. Anyway, who is the old woman behind you? Is she your mother? Why do you let her bring such a heavy shopping basket?" asked the man. "Oh my Gosh, of course she is not. She is just my maid and it is her job to help me shop," answered the daughter. Every time she got such questions, she would respond the same. Her mother just remained silent. However, hearing that thing over and over again made the mother's heart hurt. Suddenly, the mother stopped and sat off the road, crying. "Mom, why do you stop there? Let's get going or we won't be home before midnight," shouted the daughter. The mother did not respond to her, she raised her hands and prayed, "My Lord, please, forgive me for my inability to educate this child. I'm willing if you punish this disobedient child, Lord." The sky suddenly darkened, a huge lightning bolt struck, and it started to rain. The daughter started to panic as she could not move her leg, slowly her legs turned to stone and continued to spread to other parts of his body. "Mom, I am really sorry. Please, forgive me. Help me mom, help! Help me, please." However, it was too late. There's no point in regretting what she did, her whole body had turned to stone. Surprisingly, from the stone statue's eyes, tears kept flowing. That is why, people called that statue, the crying stone.
