Two Brothers Are Lost In The Woods...

They are both tired and hungry. One was Peter, who was hard working and obedient. The other was John, who is lazy and foolish. It was nightfall, and they were about to sleep when they heard a booming voice.

"BOTH OF YOU, GRAB A ROCK."

Earnest Peter did not hesitate and went off to search for a large rock. John, on the other hand, was too lazy and instead grabbed a small pebble. After they both had rocks, the voice appeared again.

"THE SIZE OF THE ROCK IN YOUR HAND SHALL BE THE SIZE OF THE BREAD YOU WILL HAVE."

All of a sudden, the rocks in their hand magically turned into warm, freshly baked bread. Excitedly, Peter began to eat his bread while John cursed at the voice. After they were done eating, the loud voice came back again.

"BOTH OF YOU, GRAB A SMALL ROCK."

Earnest Peter did not hesitate and grabbed a small pebble. John, however, decided that he wouldn't be tricked again and hauled a big, heavy boulder. After they had their rocks, the voice appeared.

"THE LENGTH OF THE DISTANCE YOU WILL THROW YOUR ROCK SHALL BE THE LENGTH OF THE LIFE YOU WILL GET."

Peter threw his rock 30 yards ahead and gained 30 more years in his life. He praised the voice, while John was not able to throw the boulder, and did not gain any year in his life. He was getting frustrated with the voice. All of a sudden, the voice appeared for the third time.

"BOTH OF YOU, GRAB TWO ROCKS."

Earnest peter did not hesitate and grabbed two rocks of equal size. John, however, decided that he would outsmart the voice and grabbed a tiny rock and the boulder he had before. He laughed and said, "How do you like me now?" Again, the voice appeared.

"THE SIZE OF THE ROCKS YOU HAVE SHALL BE THE SIZE OF YOUR BALLS."
