Mischievous Monkey

Morale of the Story: " Do not meddle with things that do not concern you. "

Once upon a time few worksman were busy building a temple on the outskirts of a town. When it was noon, the workers felt hungry & suggested that they go to town for lunch.

But one of the workers, Sohan refused to go as he was cutting the log and he couldn't leave it in the middle as some kids might get hurt. One of his counterpart said, "Just put a wedge there and come with us." Sohan liked the idea & said,"I just hope that no one touches that wedge while we are away".

Hardly had the workmen left, when a group of monkeys arrived on the scene. They all played & jumped around that place but one of the monkey was very mischievous.

" What is this piece of wood doing here & why it is placed like this? He got bored with playing & jumping around and suddenly he saw that wedge strucked in between that wooden log.

Looking at the wedge, the monkey began to wonder, " What is this piece of wood doing here & why it is placed like this?

There must be something lovely underneath it."

Thinking this he sat on the half-sawn log and tried to pull the wedge out with his full force but it was to tough to do so.

All the other monkey's rushed to his help but it was all in vain. The poor monkey was instantly killed.But after a long struggle the wedge came out of that log but the gap in the log closed in, trapping the monkey's leg.

The poor Monkey shouted help...

All the other monkey's rushed to his help but it was all in vain. The poor monkey was instantly killed.

So "Do not meddle with things that do not concern you."

The End
