The Two Wishes.

Once upon a time, in a bustling village, there lived two friends named Tom and Jack. They were inseparable and always helped each other through thick and thin. One day, while playing in the woods, they stumbled upon a magic lamp.

Excitedly, they rubbed the lamp, and out came a genie. The genie offered them each one wish. Tom, being greedy, wished for a mountain of gold. Jack, on the other hand, wished for wisdom.

Days passed, and Tom's mountain of gold brought him temporary happiness, but soon he realized that his greed had caused him to lose friends and become lonely. Jack, with his newfound wisdom, used it to help others and spread kindness throughout the village.

In the end, Tom learned that greed leads to loneliness, while Jack's kindness brought him true happiness and lifelong friendships. The moral of the story: Kindness and wisdom are more valuable than any treasure.
