Who Is Stronger??

All of us have seen the sun shining in the sky. But have you ever seen thee wind? No, we cannot see it. When it blows the trees bend and their branches swing. We feel its presence. Here is a story about the wind and the sun.
One day a quarrel began between the wind and the sun. The wind looked at the sun and said, “Do you know who is stronger, you or I?”
The sun said, “Why, I’m stronger than you. Shall we put it to the test? Look at that man on the ground below. If you can make him take his shawl off, you are stronger. If I do that, I’m stronger.”
The wind began to blow strongly. It grew stronger but could not blow the shawl off the man’s back.
Then the sun arose. As he went up it grew hotter; the shawl made the man feel very warm. He took it off and put it on his shoulder.
So the sun proved he was more powerful than the wind.
