A Rat In Earshot

A Rat In Earshot
"Listen."​

If someone comes to you with a problem of their own, leave them alone and listen carefully to what they are saying.

Show deep concern for the suffering of others. Because no one knows what will happen to whom.

Yes, that kind of thing happens to us too. Next time it might be ours too.

A mouse in a house was going out in search of its nocturnal prey. It looked up from the web.

Also the farmer of the house. His wife was also sharing a parcel. The rat looked eagerly to see that there was something inside that we could eat.

They took out a
Rat trap. It was as if the rat's breath stopped when he saw it.

Immediately he went to the chicken in the house and said,
"The farmer has bought a mouse trap. I am afraid..

The chicken said, "It's news to worry about you." Fortunately, I don't have a problem with this mousetrap.

Immediately it went and told the same news to the turkey next to it. The turkey gave the same answer and said, "I will not be afraid of all the mousetraps." said.

The distraught mouse went to the next goat and told the same news.
Aadum gave the same answer.. It doesn't matter if he stood with it..
"Are you telling me to be afraid of the mousetrap too?" That was the lick.

That night the householder and his wife went to sleep after leaving a piece of fried fish in the rat trap.

In half an hour, there was a sound of tamal. The farmer's wife came running and lifted the mousetrap in her hand saying that the mouse had been caught.

Instead of a rat, a half trapped snake bit Mistress Amma. Mistress Amma was immediately rushed to the hospital.

Even after the injection to break the poison, the farmer's wife did not get fever.

An old woman who was nearby said, "It is better to give chicken juice for fever after snake bite."

The chicken came with a wedge...the chicken was beaten and placed in the soup. The chicken died.

Even then, the fever of the farmer's wife did not subside. Some relatives came. They whipped up a turkey to cook for them. The turkey also died.

In a few days, the mother's health improved. The farmer threw a party in the town to celebrate his wife's survival.
This time it's the goat's turn. Dancing as a party has given up its life.

Eli was watching all the happenings with sadness..

The farmer lifted the mouse trap that caused his wife's snake bite and put it in the barn. The mouse escaped.

Listen to the grievances of others, with concern; comfort me;

It doesn't matter if you don't help. Say four words of support.. Better friendship is to hold hands in pain than in happiness..
