The Ant and the Grasshopper

One summer afternoon, a grasshopper was hopping about in a field. He was enjoying the day. On his way, he met an ant who was struggling to take a grain
of corn to her anthill.
The grasshopper was a lazy fellow. So, when he saw the ant, he said, “Why don’t you come and chat with me instead of working so hard? We will have a great time.”
“I am trying to collect and store food for the winter. I can’t waste time being lazy.
I think you should also start saving food for winter,” said the ant.
The grasshopper yawned and said, “Winter is too far away. There is plenty of time. Why worry about it today?” But the ant went on her way and continued to work hard. Days passed, then months. The grasshopper enjoyed himself and the ant collected enough food for the winter.
When the winter came, the leaves had fallen and the grass was dry. The grasshopper had nothing to eat. It started to snow. He thought he would die of hunger and cold. On the other hand, the ant was enjoying the fruits of her hard work. She had a nice and cozy home, and plenty to eat. The grasshopper was very sad for not working hard and being lazy.
