One day, a man was going to the market with his son and his ass. They met a couple on the way. "Why walk when you have an ass to ride?" called out the husband, "Seat the boy on the ass." "I would like that," said the boy, "help me up, father." And the father did that willingly. Soon they met another couple. "How shameful of you!" cried the woman, "let your father ride, won't he be tired?" So, the boy got down and the father rode the ass. Again they marched on. "Poor boy," said the next person they met, "why should the lazy father ride while his son is walking?" So, the boy got onto the ass too. As they went on, they met some travellers. "How cruel of them! They are up to kill the poor ass," cried one of the travellers. Hearing this, the father and the son got down. Now they decided to carry the ass on their shoulders. As they did so, the travellers broke into laughter. The laughter frightened the ass. It broke free and galloped away.

The story is the same as what we learned in our school days, but now the moral has changed. In the sense that what is right in one situation may not be correct in another.

Changing Perspectives

Sometimes gentle, sometimes rowdy. What do you think?
