The two pots
It was a cyclonic season. There was a
flood everywhere.
Many houses drowned in the flood. There
was a copper pot and an earthen pot in a house. Both these were washed away in
the flood to a river.
The copper pot called the earthen pot
and said, “Many friends, you are made of mud. You are so weak. Please come near
me.I’ ll save you.”
The earthen pot replied.”Thanks you for
your kindness. My friend. But let me swim to the bank by myself. The earthen pot
began to swim towards the bank of the river.
As the copper pot tried to swim, water
got filled into the pot and the copper pot drowned. But earthen pot reached the
bank.
Moral:
Weakness is not in appearance
