 Stimulus 1
Batu Menangis

Once upon a time, there was a poor widow who lived with her beautiful daughter, Darmi. They lived in a small
village in West Kalimantan.
The old widow had to work hard all day in the field to provide for both of them.
Unfortunately, Darmi never helped her with anything. As a very lazy and spoiled girl, all she cared about was
herself.
One day, the mother asked Darmi to go with her to the market to help buy groceries.
Darmi refused because she did not want people to see them walking together.
However, the girl finally relented with one condition: they would not walk side by side. She wanted to walk in
front so that the people in the village would not think they were related.
Although saddened by the request, the poor widow reluctantly complied.
On the way to the market, people were admiring Darmi’s beauty.
A handsome man approached her and asked where the beautiful girl was going.
“I’m going to the market,” Darmi answered.
“And who’s that walking behind you?” asked the man.
“Oh, the woman? That’s my maid,” the girl replied arrogantly.
The mother overheard the conversation and was heartbroken by her attitude.
More people saw them, and the same conversation was repeated again and again.
Eventually, the poor woman could not take the humiliation anymore and prayed, “God, I can’t bear the suffering
any longer. Please punish my child.”
All of a sudden, the sky became dark.
Darmi suddenly screamed, “Help! What’s happening to me? I can’t move my legs anymore!”
Everyone around watched in disbelief as Darmi slowly turned to stone.
“Mother, please forgive me!” Darmi cried helplessly.
The woman replied, “Sorry, my child. It’s too late now.”
Then the ungrateful girl turned to stone completely.
People called the statue the crying stone because they could see her tears running down her face as she was
turning to stone.
To this day, the statue is still there in West Kalimantan. It serves as a reminder for people to respect their parents.

of her plain dressing.
One day, a letter from the king came to their house which said that the king is having a ball tonight and his son ‘The
Prince’ would be choosing a wife; every girl in the kingdom must be aware. Everyone got excited about reading
this, Cinderella too wanted to go to the ball. Her stepmother told her that she can go if she completes all her work
on time and also helps her stepsisters with their dresses for the ball. Cinderella worked as fast as she could to get
everything done but there was always something left. At last, she was left at home disappointed.
She was so sad that she ran to the garden and said, “Wishes never come true.”
“Never my dear?” said a voice, as Cinderella looked up a little woman with a wand and a kind smile stood in front
of her. She was her fairy godmother.
She wanted to help Cinderella go to the ball. With a wave of her hand, she made Cinderella look like a princess. She
gave her a beautiful new gown, glass slippers, and shiny black horses to reach the ball. Before leaving, the fairy
godmother said “this magic will only last until midnight! You must reach back home by then!”.
When Cinderella entered the palace, everybody was awestruck by her beauty, she was the prettiest girl at the ball.
Even her stepsisters didn’t recognize her. The handsome prince also saw her and fell in love with her. All the other
girls were very jealous of her because the prince danced with her the whole night. She enjoyed herself so much that
she almost forgot what the fairy godmother had told her about her magic. However, when she saw the time and
remembered the godmother’s words she quickly left the palace and ran away. In all the hurry, one glass slipper
which she was wearing was left on the castle steps.
The prince had fallen in love with her and wanted to find out who she was as he wanted to marry her. The next day,
