The Parable of the Rabbit and the Crow

thumb it up Maelynn Tabije
A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit observed the crow for several days. Getting envious of the easy life of the crow, the rabbit finally asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?"

The crow answered, "Sure, why not? Help yourself."

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow and rested. In no time at all, it falls asleep. All of a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
