Dheda And Five Potatoes

Once upon a time, in a hamlet there was a wood-burner named Dheda. He lives with his wife and three children. They are very poor. For everyday meals they often lack.It has been a week of continuous rainfall. Dheda can not go to the forest to look for firewood.
They survive with existing food supplies. Of course, their supplies grew less and less, until one day Dheda's wife said, "Dad, we have no more food. The remaining food is five potatoes. It is not enough to eat the five of us, "he said.
"I know" Dheda said.
"But how else? The rain does not stop. I can not look for wood into the forest. Be patient, hopefully tomorrow it's not raining and I can work! Let our last supply to eat only children, "said Dheda.
By late afternoon, someone knocked on Dheda's door. Apparently, an old beggar who was soaked in rain. Dheda immediately told her to come inside.
"Thank you, sir," said the old beggar.
"I've been in rain for days. My stomach is hungry. If I may, I want to ask for food to prop the stomach, "he pleaded.
Dheda paused. He was sorry for the old beggar. But, they have no more food supplies. "Too bad I have no leftovers. We were in short supply, "Dheda said.
"Oh, have mercy on me, sir. I have not eaten these three days, "said the beggar.
Dheda felt very pity. He went to his wife and said, "Mom, I pity to see the beggar. Why do not we just give us our last food supply. "
"Okay, sir. I'll cook his potatoes soon, "his wife said.

Finally, Dheda's wife boiled the five-pointed potatoes and served them to the old beggar. The beggar ate all four potatoes and left a single potato.

                                       
Then the beggar excused himself: "Thank you, sir."
"It's the same, Kek. Be careful on the road, eh, "Dheda said.
"Oh yeah, I left a potato on a plate. If you later want to eat, sliced ​​the potato into five slices! It will be enough for all five of you. Well, goodbye, "said the old beggar.
After the old beggar left, Dheda looked at one remaining potato on the plate and thought, "Mary maybe this one potato can be enough for the five of us?"
But out of curiosity, he invites his family to gather and then sliced ​​the potato into five slices. Wonderful! Apparently, the five potato slices were turned into five potatoes. When a potato is sliced ​​into five more slices, it will turn into five more potatoes. And so on.Since then, Dheda and her family have never been short of food again. In fact, their food supply is now abundant. Dheda passed them out to their needy neighbors.

Moral Value:From the legend of Dheda and Five Potatoes is a child who always does good. Have mercy on a man in distress. And remember, anyone who cultivates kindness will definitely get a good grace too.
