The boys and the frogs
There was a big pond in a certain village. There lived a lot of frogs in the pond. One day some boys were playing near the pond …………….. …………………………. By the pond, there were a lot of small stones. The leader of the boys told other boys to play a game by throwing stones toward the frogs targeting their heads. And who will be able to hit the head of the frog will be the winner.
The boys started collecting stones from nearby and started throwing targeting the head of the frogs. Some of the frogs were wounded seriously. The boys were very happy and they were enjoying the distress of the frogs.
There was an old frog in the pond. The old frog raised its head over the water and requested the boys to stop throwing stones toward them.
The leader of the boys wanted to know why they should stop throwing stones. Because they were playing and enjoying their game.
The old frog replied, “What is game for you that is the cause of our death”. Then the boys could understand their fault and stopped throwing stones at the frogs.
The story of the boys and frogs
Long ago there was a small reservoir in a neighborhood in one corner of a small town. Just beside the water reservoir, there was also a small open space. The boys in that area used to use the open space as their playground. It was a recreation ground for the boys of that particular locality.
The boys used to play in the ground football, cricket, and different types of native games. But in the winter season, they used to play badminton in the recreation ground. In the summer and rainy season, the boys played football.
Besides football, the most popular game played by boys during the rainy season was Kabaddi, the national and popular game of Bangladesh. Playing Kabaddi was especially fun on a rainy day. When it was raining on a rainy day, they did not miss playing this superb exciting Bangladeshi game.
One day during a rainy season it was raining incessantly the whole day. In the afternoon when the rain eased a bit, the boys gathered in groups and headed to their favorite playground. Their only place of entertainment was submerged in water due to heavy rain all day.
They were very sad to see the sinking field because they had no other place to play except that field.
Suddenly the boys noticed some frogs croaking in the water reservoir just beside their playground. One of the boys hit upon a plan and proposed other boys to play with the frogs.
As they were standing idly by, they liked the idea. The boys collected some bricks and started throwing them at the frogs. Some of the frogs got injured and dived under the water.
The boys did not stop throwing bricks but continued the heinous act with great enthusiasm. The eldest frog requested the boys to stop their cruel game.
The boys replied that they were doing nothing bad because they were just playing. The leader of the frog responded, “It is a game for you and you are enjoying your game. Please think about it a little that your enjoyment is causing us serious harm.”
The boys felt ashamed of their unwelcome actions, stopped throwing bricks, and apologized to the frogs for hurting them.
Moral of the story: (a) Before any action, we should think whether it harms others or not. (b) We should not make fun of hurting others.
