🦎🐸 The Lizard And The Frog:
One day, the lizard said to his best friend, the frog.
“I want to tell you about my hopes, dreams and ambitions in life”
The frog hooted.
“Oh wow, okay then”
Then the lizard said.
“I want to own a very large farm. I want to build my own house. I want to learn a new language. And I want to marry a very beautiful princess”.
The frog flapped his hands in excitement.
“Wow! That’s awesome! You have such great plans, my friend. I’m so happy for you”
The following week, the frog said to the lizard.
“Come with me privately. I have something to show you”.
He took the lizard for a long walk on the lonely path. After a while, he stopped in front of an old, rusty and crumbled beverage can.
The frog declared.
“Listen friend, I have decided to help you achieve all your dreams in life, that is why I brought you here… All you need to do is stick your head in this can, you will see some fireflies flashing their light. Do not interrupt them, you should only make a wish before their light goes off, and your wish will come true”
Astonished, the lizard asked.
“Are you sure about this?”
“Of course! it works like magic” the frog affirmed.
“But the hole is quite narrow, I might get stuck”
“You won’t get trapped. Besides, I’ll be here to help you out if you do… I only want the best for you, my friend”
After being convinced, the lizard went ahead and inserted his head into the can. But he soon realised he had been decieved.
“I didn’t see any fireflies with light. Pull me out!” he chirped and cried.
Then, an evil smile showed on the frog’s face.
“It’s going to be a slow and painful death, my friend… I hope you can achieve all those dreams when you’re gone. Goodbye forever”.
He whispered and leaped away.
Moral: In as much as sharing your goals with others is somewhat helpful, it is true that sharing it with the wrong people could be a gateway to disaster. Some friends may act like well-wishers to you, but are secretly happy when you fail. Some of us have been through tough situations, only because we decided to share some secrets with friends. Fake friends are like scorpions in butterfly wings, and could do more damage than the real enemies. Talk less, and dream more. There is power in silence and confidence.
