Once upon a time, there lived a small village in the heart of a dense forest. People in the village were known for their devotion to nature and would always take care of it. They would plant trees, protect animals and were always thoughtful of nature’s rights.

In the village, there lived a boy named Baresma. He was a smart and hardworking boy, but his family was very poor, and he had to work hard to support them. One day, Baresma was tending his family’s fields when he saw a group of men cutting down the trees in the forest. Baresma knew that people in the village depended on the forest for their livelihood, and the trees were necessary to maintain the ecological balance of the forest. He also remembered his father’s teachings, “We should never exploit nature for our selfish needs.”

Baresma quickly ran back to the village and told the elders about the situation. The elders appreciated Baresma’s concern for nature and immediately called a meeting to discuss the issue. They decided to approach the authorities and request them to stop the tree-cutting activities.

The authorities listened to the village’s plea and were convinced of the importance of preserving the forest. They immediately took action and put a halt to the tree-cutting activities. The village rejoiced, and Baresma felt proud that his actions had contributed to the betterment of his community.

Years passed, and Baresma grew up to be a wise and responsible man. He had never forgotten the values instilled in him by his father and the village elders. He always took care of nature and treated animals with love and compassion. He became a well-respected member of the community, and people would often look up to him for advice and guidance.

One day, a group of tourists visited the village, and Baresma was assigned as their guide. The tourists were amazed by the beauty of the forest and its inhabitants. They would often ask Baresma how the village ensured that nature was always protected. Baresma would always reply, “We treat nature as our own, and when you love someone, you always take care of them.”

The tourists were impressed by Baresma’s philosophy and realized the importance of preserving nature. They carried this message back to their own homes.

In the end, the moral of the story is that nature is our responsibility, and we should always take care of it. The story teaches us to love nature and protect it with our actions so that future generations can enjoy its beauty and bounty.
