Mouse Story ...Concern for Others
A mouse looked through the
crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.
"What food might this contain?" The mouse wondered - he was devastated
to discover it was a mousetrap.
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning.
"There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse,
I can tell this is a grave concern to you but it is of no consequence to
me. I cannot be bothered by it."
The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the
house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there
is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers."
The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the
house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off
my nose."
So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the
farmer's mousetrap -- alone.
That very night a sound was heard throughout the house -- like the sound
of a mousetrap catching its prey.
The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she
did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.
The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital
and she returned home with a fever. Everyone knows you treat a fever with
fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for
the
soup's main ingredient.
But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit
with her around the clock.
To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.
The farmer's wife did not get well; she died. So many people came for
her funeral, the farmer
had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them.
The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great
sadness.
So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it
doesn't concern you,
remember -- when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep an eye out
for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.
