Once upon a time, there was an ant. He had taught his neighbour, the grasshopper, how important it was to work hard. He also taught the grasshopper that one should not play all day. The grasshopper heeded the ant’s words and taught them to the members of his family. Many years later, the grasshopper’s son met the ant’s son. The little grasshopper observed the ant for a while and said, “Why are you so busy all the time?” “Well, I think my father taught your father about that years ago,” said the ant’s son. “Yes. But why do you work so hard? You also need to rest. You cannot keep working all the time. All work and no play will make you dull,” said the little grasshopper. The little ant thought about it and replied, “Yes, my friend. From now on, I will spend time with my friends and family. You’re invited, too!”
All Work and no Play
