One
day two cats stole a piece of bread from a kitchen and wanted to share it
equally. But they could not find any way of dividing the bread equally rather
they were about to start a quarrel.
Finding
no suitable solution, the two cats agreed to put their problem to a monkey who was
considered wiser than any other animals in the jungle. He was very cunning too.
He planned to have the bread. He brought a pair of scales. He tore the bread
into two parts and put on the scales. But one side became heavier than the other.
So, the monkey tore a bit of the larger piece of the bread and ate the excess
[অতিরিক্ত].
Then he scaled again and it was found that smaller side became heavier that
time. The monkey tore the bread repeatedly and continued eating the excess of
the portion. And finally, there was left a tiny piece of bread only.
The
two cats understood the ugly intention [ইচ্ছে] of the monkey. They requested
to stop dividing and to give back the rest of the bread. The monkey got furious
[ক্ষিপ্ত]
and said “I have made huge efforts to divide your bread. So,
this is the charge of my hard work.” In this way, the cats lost their bread for
their foolishness.
Moral
of the story:
Foolishness
brings disaster.
Quarrel
brings a great loss.
Quarrel
makes the opportunity to access third party.
When
you quarrel and fight, someone else gains.
