Once the wind and the sun had an argument.
“I am stronger than you,” said the wind.
“No, you are not,” said the sun.
Just at that moment they saw a traveler walking across the world. He was wrapped in a cloak. The Sun and the Wind agreed that whosoever of them could separate the traveller from his cloak should be declared the stronger.
The wind took the first turn. He blew with all his might to tear the traveller’s cloak from his shoulders. But the harder he blew, the tighter the traveler gripped the cloak to his body. The struggle went on til the wind’s turn was over.
Now it was the Sun’s turn. The Sun smiled warmly. The traveller felt the warmth of the smiling Sun. Soon he let the cloak fall open. The Sun’s smile grew warmer and warmer, hotter and hotter. Now the traveler no longer needed his cloak. He took it off and dropped it on the ground. The Sun was declared stronger than the wind.
Moral :
Brute force can’t achieve what a gentle smile can.
