SHORT STORIES WITH MORAL LESSONS
A little bird was flying south for the Winter. It was
so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped
some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung,
he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to
sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to
investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of
cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!
**********************************
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and
do nothing?"
The eagle answered, "Sure , why not."
So the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and
rested.
All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit
and ate it.
Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting
very, very high up.
**********************************
A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love
to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I
haven't got the energy."
"Well, why don't you nibble on some of my
droppings?" replied the bull.
"They're packed with nutrients."
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it
actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached
the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched
at the top of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out
of the tree.
Moral of the story: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep
you there.
