In a spell of dry weather, when the Birds could find very little to drink, a thirsty Crow found a pitcher with a little water in it. But the pitcher was high and had a narrow neck, and no matter how he tried, the Crow could not reach the water. The poor thing felt as if he must die of thirst.
Then an idea came to him. Picking up some small pebbles, he dropped them into the pitcher one by one. With each pebble the water rose a little higher until at last it was near enough so he could drink.
Lesson : “In a pinch a good use of our wits may help us out.”
Reflection: When things get tough, don't give up! We were not born quitters. Trials in life are just stuffs we need to undergo to be a better person. Just like the crow, it's short beaks was not a hindrance unto him. Instead, he made way for him to be able to drink water and live n the middle of that dry weather. We just need to think of solutions to our problems before we think of giving up. Let us all be like the crow.
