The Kind Mountain
As Hanuman flew, a friendly mountain named Mainaka rose gently from the sea.
"Rest here, Hanuman," said the mountain kindly. "You must be tired. Take a little break on me."
Hanuman gently touched the mountain to say thank you. "You are so kind," he said. "But my friend Rama is waiting. I must not stop until my work is done."
He thanked the mountain warmly and flew on, staying focused on his important task.
Hanuman was polite, but he did not forget his goal.
