I'm very happy to take part in this contest.And all thanks goes to @delakloe for this great contest.The story am about to give out was given to us by my mother back in the olden days.Some years back,I used to have problems(fight)with my brothers in the house.

So one day,my mother called us into her room,she then start telling us about how three 3 horses once lived happily together.One was colour Red,the other one was colour White and the other one too was colour Black.They were living with people at home.Due to distraction from the people,one of them told the others to get a quiet place were there will be no disturbance from the people.So they decided to go and live in the forest.But one of them said 'what about lion,tiger and other dangerous animals who lived in the forest'?. And one of them said that,if they should unite,no animal in the forest can can defeat them.So they both went into the forest and build their house.They sat down and have agreement,the agreement was all about how to protect themselves from those animals in the forest(lion,tiger etc). Their agreement was that,if any of them is ever busy and heard a particular sound from the other,the busy one should leave all what it does go and support the colleage,they get a sound that should be used when there is an attack from the Lions,or tigers, and that sound should not be used when not on attack.
One day,a lion came to grab one of the horses, but that horse was able to call for support from the others,they both rushed and help, several times,lion tried but couldn't succeed.

Lion also went home and sat down quite, lion's wife asked what was wrong,lion told the wife what he is facing, the wife told lion that,'if you don't separate them we won't get get food,so separate them and grab them one by one', lion listen to the wife.

The next day,lion went to the horses place, unfortunately,lion saw black horse, and lion came closer, the open the mouth to call his colleagues but asked him not to.Lion get closer and told the horse(black) that, when ever you are hidden,the horse (white)colour tells us were you are,so if you could agree and let catch horse(white)so that you can now hide without me knowing where you are.Lion was able to convince horse(black and red)they let the lion catched the white one.
A couple of days came to pass, Lion went and told the black horse to help him catch red horse, with the same reason the lion gave before getting white horse.So black horse helped lion to catch red horse, leaving black horse alone, black horse now begins to think but it was too late.

Few days ago,lion came to black horse and told him that he is hungry, and black horse now knows that it's his term.Black horse asked lion what he wants to eat, and lion told black horse that'i want to eat your meat this very day', black horse then tried all his possible best just to convince lion but couldn't succeed,black horse cried for help but nobody came to his rescure.He then told lion that, the very first day you convince us (black and red horse) to help you catch white horse was the day I Know that if you finished them , you will come for me,so I have killed myself that day before today.Lion quickly grab black horse neck and kill him.
So my mother told us that,if we are together, nobody can destroyed or separate us.

So in this story,I learnt that we should help each other and also involve our wives in some of our decision making.Because it was lions wife who gave lion suggestion to separate them.It really changed my life.

Thank you for your time and I hope you enjoyed it.
