Once upon a time in a town far, far away, lived two young siblings, John and Mary. John was always excited to shop and Mary was always content with watching her brother shop.

One particular day, John and Mary went to the local mall to shop. It was a huge mall with many stores and a wide variety of items. John was excited to see all the different items, while Mary couldn’t help but marvel at how beautiful and nice the stores were.

They decided to visit the clothing store first. John fell in love with a new pair of shorts he found, but before he could buy them, Mary asked him to wait and think about it. She reminded him that there was no need to hurry, and that he should think about whether or not he really needed them. John agreed and they decided to move on to the next store.

As they were walking around, Mary noticed a small child walking around alone without any adult supervision. She became concerned and asked John to stay close to her. John agreed and he asked the child if he was ok, but the child just ran away crying.

John and Mary walked around for a few more minutes before deciding to go home. John was disappointed that he didn’t get to buy the shorts, but Mary reminded him that it was more important to look out for the safety of others.

When they got home, John told his parents about what happened at the mall. His parents were proud of him for taking the time to look out for someone else and making sure that everyone was safe.

At the end of the day, John and Mary learned an important lesson. It is always important to take the time to think about our purchases, and to make sure that we take into consideration the needs of others. Shopping is fun but it should never be done at the expense of someone else.

No matter where we are, it is important to always be mindful of those around us and how our actions may affect them. Shopping can be lots of fun, but it is also important to take the time to think about the consequences of our choices and make sure that we are doing the right thing.
