Day of Reckoning...


There was a wildfire in the jungle.

All the animals were terrified and running for their lives.

In this chaos, an ant was repeatedly filling her mouth with water, carrying it to the edge of the fire, and splashing it in hope of dousing the fire.

But her mouth was too small to carry any large amount of water, and thus this exercise was appearing too futile to the other animals who were watching the ant in astonishment.

Someone asked the ant, “What are you doing? Don’t you know you are ill equipped to bring down this fire?”

The ant replied, “On the day of reckoning, God will segregate us in three groups.”

“The first group will comprise of those who lit the fire. The second group will comprise of those who saw the fire and did nothing. And last but not the least, would be a group which will comprise of those who tried to douse it.”

“I am doing my bit to find a spot in that third group”
