It was a cold and silent night. The weather was cold. A group of monkeys was on a tree. They were clinging to its branches. One of the monkeys said, “I wish we could find some fire. It will help us to keep warm.”
Suddenly they noticed a flock of fireflies. One of the young monkeys mistook it for fire, so he grabbed the firefly. He put it under a dry leaf and started blowing at it. Some other monkeys also joined in his efforts.
Meanwhile, a sparrow came flying to its nest on the same tree the monkeys were sitting on.
She noticed what they were doing. The sparrow laughed. She said, “Hey silly monkeys, that is a firefly, not real fire. I think all of you should take shelter in a cave.”
The monkeys did not listen to the sparrow. They continued to blow at the poor firefly.
After some time, the monkeys became very tired. Now they realized that what the sparrow had said was correct. They set free the firefly and moved to a nearby cave.
Kellemesen eltöltött estét, hétvégét kívánok sok szeretettel.
Nagyon szép tavaszi időnk volt ma, ettől kis időre elbúcsúzunk, erős lehülés érkezik. Vigyázz magadra. Ölelésem, Éva
Szeretek otthon lenni, az én helyemen, a gondolataimmal, ahol mindentől jól érzem magam, védetten, ahol megtanultam élvezni a béke pillanatait, és kis kortyokban inni az életem.
