Two Friends

Two Lazy friends

There were two girls who were the best of friends. They started to live together

but they were too lazy. They did not do any work but pointed fingers to each

other. Hence their house was not clean. The house began to get visitors like rats

mouse and insects. Due to this atmosphere both fell sick. A doctor who

visited them was alarmed on the untidiness of the house. He said to both

of them that unless the house is kept clean, they will be sick always.

Hence to avoid sickness the house has to be cleaned up immediately.

Hence from then on wards the friends ensured they kept the house clean.

The hen and the falcon

A falcon and a hen were talking to each other. The falcon said to the hen, you are the most

ungrateful bird.

Why do you say that? The hen asked angrily

The falcon replied, your masters feed you but you fly from one corner to another, if they come

to catch you. You are ungrateful. I am a wild bird yet, I always please those who are kind to me.

The hen asked quietly, how would you feel if you saw a falcon roasted over a fire? I have

seen hundreds of hens being cooked on fire. If you were in my place, you would never

come near your masters again and while I only fly from one corner to corner, you would

fly from hill to hill.
