John Snyder | | A mouse looked through the crack in the wall
to see the farmer and his wife open a
package.
"What food might this contain?" The mouse
wondered - he was devastated to
discover it was a mousetrap.
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse
proclaimed the warning: "There is a
mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap
in the house!"
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised
her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I
can tell this is a grave concern to you, but
it is of no consequence to me. I
cannot be bothered by it."
The mouse turned to the pig and told him,
"There is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very
sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is
nothing I can do about it but pray. Be
assured you are in my prayers."
The mouse turned to the cow and said "There
is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for
you, but it's no skin off my nose."
So, the mouse returned to the house, head
down and dejected, to face the
farmer's mousetrap alone.
That very night a sound was heard throughout
the house -- like the sound of a
mousetrap catching its prey.
The farmer's wife rushed to see what was
caught. In the darkness, she did not
see it was a venomous snake whose tail the
trap had caught.
The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer
rushed her to the hospital, and
she returned home with a fever. Everyone
knows you treat a fever with fresh
chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet
to the farmyard for the soup's main
ingredient.
But his wife's sickness continued, so
friends and neighbors came to sit with her
around the clock. To feed them, the farmer
butchered the pig.
The farmer's wife did not get well; she
died. So many people came for her
funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered
to provide enough meat for all of them.
The mouse looked upon it all from his crack
in the wall with great sadness.
So, the next time you hear someone is facing
a problem and think it doesn't
concern you, remember -- when one of us is
threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called
life. We must keep an eye out for
one another and make an extra effort to
encourage one another.
REMEMBER: EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN
ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY; OUR
LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON.
One of the best things to hold onto in this
world is a friend.
Hi Gang, this is an important lesson to remember in life
Everyone plays a vital part in your day to day activities and although the grass may look greener elsewhere, there is nowhere like home and no one like who helped helped you when you needed help.Private Reply to John Snyder | | |
