00:30I don't feel so well.

00:32Ah, okay.

00:33But what do I get this time?

00:36Umm...

00:37You get more chocolates from me.

00:40And maybe a treat at the nearest fast food joint?

00:44Wow!

00:44That sounds perfect!

00:46You will get your maths homework tomorrow.

00:49Thanks, Bill.

00:50See you tomorrow.

00:58Hi, Jack.

00:59Have you seen Bill around?

01:01Hey, he is on sick leave for about two weeks.

01:05The doctor has advised him to get complete bed rest.

01:09Oh no!

01:10My maths homework!

01:12And what about my next homework?

01:15I will have to do it on my own.

01:18How would I do it?

01:21Come on, kids.

01:22Submit your math workbooks now.

01:29Good morning, Miss Ellie.

01:31I am sorry.

01:33I left my math workbook at home today.

01:36Well, that's not an acceptable excuse, Tofu.

01:40Your punishment is to submit the next four exercises

01:44from the workbook tomorrow.

01:46But, Miss Ellie, I am sorry.

01:49No excuses, Tofu.

01:51Get back to your seat now.

01:58Tofu, why are you crying?

02:01What happened?

02:02Tia, I used to reward Bill for doing my projects and homework.

02:07But now, he is on sick leave.

02:09How would I do it on my own?

02:12It is a lot of hard work.

02:14And I don't know how to do my homework.

02:17But Tofu, that is such a bad habit.

02:20You shouldn't have given all your projects and homework to Bill.

02:24You are running away from responsibilities and hard work.

02:28You will never learn anything

02:30if you continue with this habit of yours.

02:33I am sorry, Tia.

02:35Please help me out.

02:36You reminded me of a story.

02:38Come on, hear me out.

02:54In a small town nearby, there lived a kind fisherman named Finn.

02:59He was a generous and a hardworking man.

03:03Every day, he woke up early and went to work.

03:07And later in the evening, he would come

03:10and sell fish in the market and earn lots of dimes.

03:16One fine day, as the fisherman was on his way to work

03:20he was stopped by a beggar.

03:22Oh, generous man! Spare me a few dimes.

03:26I haven't had a grain of food in the past few days.

03:32Here you go, my friend.

03:38The next day, Finn was again stopped by the beggar.

03:42Oh, generous man! Spare me a few dimes.

03:46I am hungry.

03:49Here you go. Eat well.

03:52And the next day, Finn was stopped by the beggar yet again.

03:58But this time, Finn had an idea that the beggar was just lazy.

04:03He was a perfectly healthy man and he could get any job if he worked hard enough.

04:11My friend, here are a few dimes for today.

04:15But I have a greater reward for you

04:18if you come by the river to meet me tomorrow morning.

04:21A reward?

04:23Tomorrow morning?

04:24Ah, okay. I'll be there.

04:28Next day, as the sun rises

04:31the beggar wakes up with excitement in search of a greater reward.

04:36To the fisherman's surprise,

04:38the beggar was already there by the river before the fisherman arrived.

04:44Oh, hello there.

04:46You are here before time.

04:48I like the spirit, young man.

04:50Good morning.

04:52Here, throw this fishnet in the river and wait for your reward.

04:57What kind of a reward is this?

05:00Well, the reward isn't here yet.

05:03You will have to wait.

05:05Ah, okay.

05:08The beggar throws the fishnet in the river

05:11and paces up and down impatiently by the shore.

05:15Finn carefully watches his behavior and says the next thing.

05:20Hey, take it easy. Be patient.

05:23Come, sit down with me.

05:26Is this what you do every day?

05:28Don't you get frustrated working so hard and waiting so long by the river?

05:34Ha ha! Oh no, my friend.

05:37I give my best and wait patiently every day.

05:42The reward and contentment that I get later is worth it all.

05:47Oh look, you can now pull back the fishing net to the shore.

05:51The beggar jumps with excitement and pulls the fishing net towards him.

05:56He is stunned when he notices

05:59that the fishing net is filled with dozens of healthy fish.

06:06And here is the reward that you waited so patiently for.

06:11You can now go to the market and sell it off to earn some dimes.

06:16You don't have to beg anymore

06:18if you worked hard for yourself and not be lazy.

06:22Oh, kind man.

06:24I get the whole point of this now.

06:26Thank you so much for teaching me such an important lesson.

06:31Wow! That was an awesome story, Tia.

06:35I feel like I let my laziness overcome my patience

06:39and ability to work hard.

06:41Good job, boy. You got this.
