The Sand Castle Challenge - StoryTime

MORAL STORY
Inspired by: The rabbit and the tortoise
Moral: Pride hath a fall

Once upon a time John went with his family to the beach where he found a bunch of kids building sandcastle by the shore. John also tries to build one but every time he did, the sand slipped away with the waves ruining his castle. The kids who found him copying what they were doing started mocking him on his failure to build a perfect castle and challenge him to make one before they complete theirs. John did not lose his will, but his sandcastle kept getting carried away by the sea waves. At last, he builds it at some distance and protects it with rocks and bricks. This time his sandcastle was small as compared to the other kids. When they all were ready to put flags on their castles, a gust appeared and destroyed the huge sandcastle of the kids. However, John’s sandcastle remained unharmed and protected.

MORAL OF THE STORY:
Pride hath a fall. The pride of other kids ruined their sandcastle, as they thought they are doing it perfectly and were careless about the precautions they could take to save their sandcastle.
Slow and steady wins the race. Even though John was slow, at least he didn’t stop and kept trying using his mind to keep his sandcastle protected.

TED BUNDY - Character Sketch

TED BUNDY -Xinea Ansari https://writingsbyshe.blogspot.com/ Ted Bundy is one of the most well-known serial killers in American history. He kidnapped, raped, and murdered numerous young women and girls during the 1970s and possibly earlier. Ted Bundy was a very dangerous man that made history through his absolute cruelty. Bundy’s personality is certainly crucial in understanding his behaviour. Bundy was regarded as handsome and charismatic, traits that he exploited to win the trust of victims and society. He would typically approach his victims in public places, feigning injury or disability, before knocking them unconscious and taking them to secluded locations to rape and strangle them. He was truly a monster. It is fascinatingly horrid how someone’s mind may work like that. And, how someone who seems so sincere at first could turn out to be something like Ted Bundy . He was a sadistic sociopath who took pleasure from another human's pain and the control he had over his

Adolf Hitler - Character Sketch

Adolf Hitler - Nazi Leader -Javeria Mohideen https://javeriammohideen.wixsite.com/website/post/adolf-hitler-nazi-leader Adolf Hitler, the man responsible for the barbaric horrors of the Holocaust and devastation of the Second World War, is known to be one of the most notorious dictators of the 20th century. A tyrant, Hitler used political infighting and economic woes to strengthen his rein over Germany in the beginning of 1933. An autocratic leader of the Nazi party, Hitler had staunch anti-Semitism beliefs and an obsessive pursuit of Aryan supremacy. His warped belief system led to the genocide of 6 million Jews – a perspective that was evident in his self-authored book ‘Mein Kampf’. In the book, he declared the superiority of a white Aryan race, while he reserved his hatred for the Jews who he viewed as "parasites". The Nazis had a belief that Jews, Roma ('gypsies'), black people and other ethnic groups were inferior to Aryans. Their elimination, he said, "mu
