HASTE MAKES WASTE:


A woman had a pet mongoose. It was very faithful. One day she went to the market, leaving her baby in the care of the mongoose.
At that time a big cobra entered the house. The mongoose killed it after a long and fierce fight. When the woman came back she saw the mongoose lying at the entrance. She noticed its blood- covered mouth. In her haste the woman thought that the mongoose had killed her baby. In a moment of sudden fury, the threw the water pot on the mongoose and killed it . Alas when she entered the house she was filled with remorse. Her baby was playing cheerfully near by a big cobra lay dead. The woman shed tears of grief fondling the carcass of the mongoose.
The moral lesson:- Don’t act in haste.
