THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER


In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart's content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.

"Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper, "instead of toiling and moiling in that way?"

"I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "and recommend you to do the same."

"Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper; we have got plenty of food at present." But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil.

When the winter came the Grasshopper found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing, every day, corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer.

Then the Grasshopper knew...

Lesson: It is best to prepare for the days of necessity.


Reflection:
We have that kind of trait that we only work when it is already at last minute. The right thing to do is to be always prepared at all times for we don't know what will happen next. So you must be a Girl scout which is always prepared at all times. Imagine if you come in a situation that you don't know anything? It's kinda freaking out right? Prepare if you have your goal which is to make success yours.
