What is a Play to One is Death to Others
There was an old pond in a village. There lived a large number of frogs in the pond. The frogs were living there happily. One day some boys were passing by the pond. At that time, the frogs were swimming and croaking happily. Seeing this, the boys began to throw stones at them. All the frogs at once went down into the water. But the boys remained standing there with stones in their hands. The new game was a great fun to them. They went on pelting the frogs with stones when they raised their head above the water. Thus many frogs were hit hard and few were killed. At last, an old frog raised its head and said, “Oh boys please! please! stop the cruel fun. Don’t throw stones at us.” “It is a play. We are enjoying it.” said the boys. “Why should we stop it?” “What is play to you causes death to us. This is why, you should stop it.” answered the frog. The boys were ashamed of this. They left the cruel game and went away.
