The grasshopper and
the ant
Once upon a time there
was a grasshopper who lived happily singing and roaming around every day. One
day when the grasshopper was merrily singing, she happened upon an ant who was
toiling in preparation for the rainy season ahead.
She asked of the ant,
“Why do you work so hard on such a pleasant day? “Why not sing and dance and
sing as I do?”
The ant replied “I
need to plan and prepare for the rainy weather to come”
The grasshopper
laughed and danced away. When the first rains fell, the grasshopper perished.
The ant, snug and
secure in her well-provisioned nest survived well. Indeed, she proposed oblivious
to the tempest outside her home.
Then the Grasshopper
knew: It is best to prepare for days of need.
So which are you? The grasshopper or the ant
