THE MOSQUITO NET One day David asked his wife to go to the market and buy a mosquito net. His wife went to a shop and asked the shopkeeper to show her the best quality net. The shopkeeper showing her a very good net said, "This is the best quality which you won't be able to find elsewhere. Not even a single mosquito can pass through it." Mrs. David refused to but the net. When the shopkeeper asked the reason, she said, "If a mosquito can't pass through it, then how will we pass through it." Then she returned home and narrated the whole matter to her husband. Hearing the whole matter, David laughed at his wife's foolishness.
Position has its value Once upon a time a goat was grazing near her master's cottage. All of a sudden, she saw green grass growing on the roof of the cottage. Deciding to enjoy it, she leaped onto the roof and started browsing the green shoots of the grass. Just then a wolf came there and seeing the goat, his mouth started watering. But he was unable to get to the roof of the cottage. So, he turned to go away to look for some other prey. The goat saw the wolf licking his chops. So, she laughed in her sleeves and looked at him with jeering eyes. The wolf being helpless had to tolerate this mockery. While walking away, the wolf looked up and said, "Young lady! Its not you who is mocking at me but it is the height at which you are standing. Your high position has given you your value."
