Two friends and a bear/ A friend in need, is a friend in deed
Once upon a time two friends were passing by a forest. They were talking about their love for each other. Suddenly a bear came there. The first friend climbed up a tree. The other friend could not climb up tree. He did not find any way. He lay down on the ground and feigned dead. The bear smelt his ears, nose and face. He thought him to be dead. Then the bear went away.
Buddha

A poor woman once came to Buddha. She asked him whether he could give her any medicine to restore her dead child to life. The holy man was touched by the great sorrow of the woman. He told her that there was only one medicine which could revive her son. He told her to bring a handful Of mustard seeds from a 'house where death had never entered. The sorrowful mother went from door to door seeking the mustard seeds but at every door she met with sad replies. One said, "I have lost my husband." Another said, "Our youngest child died last year." She returned with a heavy heart to the great teacher and told him the result of her great search. Then Buddha told her affectionately that she must not think much of her own grief since sorrow and death are common to all.
