BEWARE OF HYPOCRITES
Once a fox was roaring in a forest searching for food. As to his bad luck, he got caught up in a trap. He tried his best to get free but lost his tail in the struggle. He felt very small, thinking that now, every fox would laugh at him. He felt so sad that he thought of committing suicide. But then he said to himself, “It is cowardice to kill oneself. I should think of something else.”
At last, the fox planned to persuade all the foxes to part with their tails. So, he called a meeting of all the foxes and said, “We should get rid of our tails as they are heavy, ugly and tiresome.”
Though, he tried to divert the attention of all the foxes from his tail less appearance, one clever fox noticed it and said, “Sir! you wouldn’t have given us this advice, if you weren’t tail less. Isn’t it?”
So, we say, “hypocrisy seldom works”
The End..
