The Ant and The Grasshopper




In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about,chirping and singing to its heart's content.An Ant passed by,bearing along with great effort an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.

Grasshopper said to the Ant,"come & chat with me, instead of toiling and moiling away!"
"I am helping to lay up food for the winter,"
said the Ant,"and recommend you to do the same" 
"why bother about winter?"
said the Grasshopper;"we have got plenty of food at present."





But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter came,the Grasshopper found itself dying of hunger,
While it saw the ants distributing every day, corn&grain from the stores they had collected in the summer.
Then the Grasshopper remembered Ant's words.





Moral: Work today & you can reap the benefits tomorrow.
