The Elephant and the Ant

A very good morning to our honourable judges, teachers and all my friends.
Today, I would like to share a story entitled The Elephant and the Ant.

Once upon a time, there lived a big elephant in the jungle. As the elephant
was much bigger than all the other animals, he would always trouble them. In
the same forest, there lived a family of ants. They were a hard-working family
who always would go to gather food.

One day as they were walking big mean elephant threw water on them.
The ant got angry and asked the elephant to stop troubling others. But the
elephant shouted at the ant to shut her mouth or else he will walk over all of
them.

The next day the ants noticed the sleeping elephant. The ant thought of
teaching a lesson to the elephant. She quietly climbed onto the elephant's trunk
and entered it. Once inside, she started biting the elephant. The elephant shouted
because of pain. He tried everything but couldn't get the ant to stop biting him
or come out of its trunk. Such an enormous elephant became useless ahead of
the tiny ant. The elephant pleaded to the ant to stop biting.

The ant stopped and said, "Well, I hope now you know how others will
feel when you hurt them". The elephant said, "Yes, I do! Please stop now". The
ant stopped and came out of its trunk. The elephant apologized to the ant and
promised never to disturb others again.

The story tells us that ever underestimate anyone and hurt anyone. We
should always be kind to smaller, or weaker creatures..
That’s the end of my story. Thank you.
