The Ant and the Grasshopper
Once there was a grasshopper and he never liked to work hard. He was very frivolous and spent his time enjoying on the banks of the river . There was also and ant that lived in the same area . The ant, on the other hand, was sincere and hardworking.
Winter was coming and food would be scarce. The ant started working hard to store food for the winter. The grasshopper was busy playing and never bothered to save food for the winter. In fact he even used to make fun of the ant for working hard.
Soon winter came. Now, the ant had enough food and he could enjoy the food. The grasshopper on the contrary could not find food anywhere. He asked the ant to share the food, but the ant refused saying that he cannot help because he had just about enough for himself. The grasshopper starved and became very weak that winter. From that year on he became serious and started saving food
Moral of the story:
We must always work hard. Winter is coming. What this means is that we must work hard when we can so that when times become tough, we will have enough to tide us through the tough times
The Tortoise and the Hare:
The hare and tortoise were friends. The hare used to always show off saying that he was very fast and used to tease the tortoise for his slow walk.
One day, the tortoise had had enough and challenged the hare for a race. The hare burst out laughing, but agreed for a long race.
In the race, the hare started very fast and the tortoise started at a slow pace. In the middle of the race, the hare saw that the tortoise was way behind and decided to take a small nap.The tortoise on the contrary moved slowly and steadily and crossed the place where the hare was taking a nap.After a while, the tortoise reached the finish line also.
