Idleness is a curse.

Ant and Grasshopper
A lazy grasshopper laughed at a little ant as she was always busy gathering food.

"why are youworking so hard?" he asked, "come into the sunshine and listen to my merry notes."

"But the ant went on her work. She said" I am lying in a store for the winter. Sunny days won't last for ever."

"Winter is so far away yet, "laughed the grasshopper back. 

The ant and grasshopperAnd when the winter came, the ant settled down in her snug house. She had plenty of food to last the whole winter. The grasshopper had nothing to eat so, he went to the antand begged her for a little corn.

"No", replied the ant, "you laughed at me when I worked. You yourself sang through the summer. So you had better dancethe winter away."

MORAL : Idleness is a curse.


Never find fault with others.


The peacock and the crane
One day a peacock met a crane and said, "So sorry for you. You have so dullfeathers. Look at the fine colors of my feathers."

"Well!" replied the crane, "your look are brighter then mine. but whereas I can fly high up into the sky, all you can do is to strut about on the ground."
