Scene: A small village. John and Sam are working on their farms.
John: Hey Sam, how’s your harvest coming along this year?
Sam: Not great, John. My crops aren’t yielding as much as I’d hoped. It’s tough managing everything on my own with these old tools.
John: I understand. I’ve been fortunate to have more resources and workers to help me out. But I know you’re a hard worker, Sam.
Sam: Thanks, John. I just wish I had the same opportunities as you. Maybe then my farm would do better.
(The village elder approaches.)
Elder: Good day, John and Sam. I’ve been observing your efforts and decided to hold a competition to determine the best farmer. The winner will receive a golden plow.
John: That sounds exciting! But Elder, Sam doesn’t have the same resources as I do. It wouldn’t be a fair competition.
Elder: You’re right, John. To make it fair, I will provide Sam with the same tools and workers that you have.
Sam: Really? Thank you, Elder! This will make a huge difference.
(Time passes, and both farms flourish equally.)
Elder: The time has come to judge the competition. After careful consideration, I declare it a tie. Both of you have shown exceptional farming skills.
John: A tie? But how?
Elder: This competition was not just about who could grow the most crops. It was about showing that when given equal opportunities, everyone has the potential to succeed. You both deserve equal respect and recognition.
Sam: Thank you, Elder. And thank you, John, for your support. This means a lot.
John: We’re in this together, Sam. Let’s help each other out from now on.
Elder: Remember, villagers, equality in opportunities allows everyone to reach their full potential and contributes to the overall success and harmony of our community.
Moral: Equality in opportunities allows everyone to reach their full potential and contributes to the overall success and harmony of the community.
