The web is my home



Buzzy the bee was as proud as he was lazy. He went from flower to flower, insect to insect, bragging about his achievements.

The queen bee and his other friends often warned him about his careless behavior towards his work. But Buzzy did not heed their wise counsel.

One day as he was flying about, he saw a spider. The spider was busy making his web. Buzzy, stopping at a safe distance from the spider.

“Hey Spidy, what are you doing there?” he yelled out to the busy spider.

Spidy carried about with his job, only giving a cursory glance in Buzzy’s direction.

Buzzy yelled again, this time much louder.

“Hey, buddy, what are you doing? I am feeling bored. Can we play together?” he asked.

“I am busy right now. I shall play with you when I am free,” said Spidy.

Buzzy was not happy with the reply.

He went a little closer and saw Spidy spinning his web with a fluid from his own body. “Disgusting! Your house is not made of the best materials around, I observe. Have you ever seen a honey comb and the amazing architecture?” Buzzy boasted.

Spidy did not reply and went about his business.

Buzzy continued to distract Spidy. After a long time Spidy completed his work.He turned around to Buzzy and asked, 

 “Why don’t you test the strength of my house before comparing it to your architecture?”

Buzzy was unaware of the consequences of accepting Spidy’s invitation.

Luckily for Buzzy, his friend, who had been searching for him, pulled him away, just as he was about to step into Spidy’s web.

Buzzy and his friend disappeared, but not before Buzzy witnessed the fate of an unlucky insect that accepted Spidy’s invitation!

Buzzy turned around to his friend and thanked him for saving his life. Thereafter,Buzzy had very little time to boast about himself to strangers.
 
Spirituality is the ability to focus on what you do, unmindful of the negative comments that surround you!

When in doubt follow nature!



A king escaped with his defeated, depleted army with no clue on how to begin afresh.

One day as he roamed the country side with his minsters and loyal soldiers, he hit upon an idea. The king had heard of a fertile area somewhere in the vicinity of where they were currently located. On inquiring about the place from the locals there, he found out that the king of that land was no more and the land was in total chaos.

“This is an opportunity for us to capture the place and bring some peace and progress there,” he told his ministers. But the catch was that the place was on the other side of a huge mountain.

The ministers suggested that they get as close to the mountain as possible and then decide what next to do. The army marched closer to the mountain and waited. Suddenly, one of the ministers spotted a goat grazing on top of the mountain.

“Hey, look there! A goat! There must be a path that will take us to the mountain top,” he exclaimed.
Eager to begin a new life the army attempted to climb the rough terrain of the formidable mountain. But very soon they lost their way and did not know how to proceed. They decided to climb down as the sun was setting and very soon it would become dark.

As they were climbing down, they saw a few goats climbing down ahead of them. When the goats had gone past, they saw a lone boy with a stick in his hand. Relieved, the army ran towards him. As they neared him, they realised that the boy was blind!

The king quickly introduced himself as a traveller in search of a livelihood. The boy guided them down mountain. Once they reached the foothills, one of the ministers asked the boy, how he could climb the mountain without being able to see.

The boy giggled mildly and said, “I thank God for making me blind. What is obvious to a blind man is not so obvious to people with vision,” he said.

The king and the ministers had to agree with the boy.

“I feel the spots where the goats step on. It is smoother that the rest of the area. I keep feeling for the spots and follow them,” he said, amused at the ignorance of a great king.

The next day the King and his ministers were seen feeling the rocks before stepping ahead. Very soon the little army were seen marching like tiny ants on top of the mountain!




What is obvious to a blind man is not so obvious to a man who can see!
