The Crystal Ball

Nassir,  a  small  boy  found  a  crystal  ball  behind  the  banyan  tree  of  his  garden.  The  tree  told  him  that  it  would  grant  him  a  wish.  He  was  very  happy  and  he  thought  hard.  But  unfortunately  he  could  not  come  up  with  anything  he  wanted.  So  he  kept  the  crystal  ball  in  his  bag  and  waited  until  he  could  decide  on  his  wish.

Days  went  by  without  him  making  a  wish,  but  his  best  friend  saw  him  looking  at  the  crystal  ball.  He  stole  it  from  the  seer  and  showed  it  to  everyone  in  the  village.  They  all  asked  for  palaces  and  riches  and  lots  of  gold,  but  could  not  make  more  than  one  wish.  In  the  end,  everyone  was  angry  because  no  one  could  have  everything  they  want.  They  became  very  unhappy  and  decided  to  ask  Nassir  for  help.

Nassir  wished  that  everything  would  go  back  to  how  it  was  once  before  the  villagers  had  tried  to  satisfy  their  greed.  The  palaces  and  goal  vanished  and  the  villagers  once  again  became  happy  and  content.
