The Foolish Donkey

 The Foolish Donkey

Ram was a merchant; he had a donkey to transport the goods from one place to another.

One day there was a salt to transport, Ram was along with him and said donkey to walk fast. We have to come to home early the donkey was crossing the river, and he slipped and fell down. The sacked got soaked in water. The salt got wet and dissolved. the donkey manages to stand up it found that the weight of the sack got vey less. 

The Donkey thought next day when ram loads, I will do the same and the sack of load will become less heavy. Donkey was very happy.

The donkey was repeating the same on daily basis. Ram was not able to understand what is happening.

The days gone and ram wanted to teach a lesson to donkey, so he loaded his donkey with a sack full of cotton and left for his village.

While reaching to the river, the donkey thought, "What the pity! the sack loaded is so small weight and if i slip in the river , it would reduce the weight and will be lighter to carry the load." happily he executed his plan and slipped in the river, the donkey tried to stand up, but he could not, the cotton by getting wet , it got so heavy , he could not even stand up properly. The load was very heavy instead of being light. The donkey felt very bad for his misbehavior.

From that day onwards, the donkey did not execute the plan and was happy to carry to heavy loads for his master.

Moral: - You should never try to avoid the work given to you
