Grasshopper and an Ant Short Story

Once there lived a grasshopper in a field. On a bright sunny day, when an ant was working hard to collect food, the grasshopper was singing the songs. He would look at the ant and say, ”Why do you work so hard? Summers are for fun and games. Come, listen to my song”. But the ant would ignore him and continue working.

As the days of winter came by, the grasshopper had nothing to eat. He begged the ant for food, but she said, ”When I worked hard, you sang. Go away, there is no food for you”. The grasshopper learned his lesson the hard way.

Moral: Work hard so you can reap the benefits tomorrow.
