One good turn begets another

in macrophotography •  7 years ago 

Ants are known to be the most hardworking insects. Perhaps because of this, there are numerous bedtime stories about Ants. Among these, my favorite is the one with the Dove. Have you heard of this story? The story tells that an ant accidentally fell into a river. Upon seeing the ant struggling to swim, a dove quickly dropped a leaf towards the ant. This leaf served as the ant's life raft which soon brought it to the safety of the riverbank.

Once safe, the ant saw a hunter on his way to throw a net to capture the dove. The ant quickly bit the heel of the hunter, throwing him off balance, and saving the dove in return. Awesome right? So the ant and the dove lived happily ever after (just kidding...they just went on their separate ways).

Moral of the story: One good turn begets another.
