The Ant and the Dove

An ant went to the river to drink. But he fell and couldn’t swim back to the riverbank. A dove saw the ant in danger. The dove dropped a leaf in the water to serve as a boat for the ant. And the ant immediately climbed unto it. The ant thanked the dove. “Someday I may also help you”. A few days later, the ant saw a man with a bow and arrow. Ready to shoot at the dove. The ant bit the man’s leg, and the man jumped. So his arrow missed the dove. The dove thanked the ant and immediately flew away to safety.

Moral lesson: “Sow a seed of the kindness and you will reap kindness in return.”
