The world is full of so many stories but a few of them have lessons so well imbibed in them which sometimes go beyond a fairy tale juxtaposition and apply to your life, our life.
I am gonna put one such story which many of you might have read somewhere but the morale I got it inspired me to put it across in the blogworld. My effort would only be rewarded if a few beings read it and get the essence of it...
Story..
A snake was hunting a rabbit that was running for it's life. Hungry for a long time, the snake would relish this hunt. Swaying across the tiny bushes, the rabbit would lease its life in salvation if at all it would survive this wrath of its destiny. Meanwhile two eagles are watching this game of "survival of the fittest" from above and are praying heavens for getting their feast for the day.
Just when the snake was about to pounce on the rabbit's tiny life, the eagles catchhold both of them in their flight. Held tight in their respective claws, the reptile and the rabbit can still each other even after being held victim of the wild bird. The fate of all is almost sealed now.
However the rabbit is still fearing it might make its way into the snake's throat and has almost forgot that anyways the eagle is going to have it! In sharp contrast, the snake is waiting for its hopeless chance to have one bite before being gulped by the predator......
Apply this to your real life and you find that the experiences accounted for the rabbit and the snake exemplify one nice morale. "Fear of Death" is sometimes more horrible than DEATH and "Greed" would always vanish after DEATH
Isn't this very true with LIFE? And we are thankful that the hunt for the morale was successful by the storyteller......
