A mousetrap may risk the whole farm

A rat looked through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. He thought which type of food could be there. Discovering that it was a mousetrap he got terrified.
He ran to the farmyard to warn others: "There is a mousetrap in the house! a mousetrap in the house!"

The chicken said: "Sorry, Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a big problem for you, but it doesn’t mean anything to me, it doesn’t bother me."

The mouse turned to the pig and told him: "There is a mousetrap in the house! a mousetrap!"
"Excuse me Mr. Rat said the pig, but there's nothing I can do, except pray. Be assured that you are in my prayers. "

The rat then went to the cow. She said: "What Mr. Mouse? A mousetrap? Am I in danger? I don’t think so!"

So the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap alone.
That night he heard a noise, like a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was in the trap. In the dark, she saw that the trap had caught the tail of a poisonous snake. The snake bit the woman. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned with a fever. Everyone knows that to feed someone with fever, nothing better than a chicken soup. The farmer took his hatchet and got the main ingredient. As his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to visit her. To feed them the farmer butchered the pig. The woman did not improve and she died. Many people came to the funeral. The farmer had the cow slaughtered to feed all those people.


So my friend, the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and believe that the problem does not concern to you, always try to remember that when there is a mousetrap in the house, the whole farm may run risk. Always think that "The problem of one is everybody’s problem."
