*The Turtles* <http://www.funkruti.com>

** <http://www.funkruti.com>*
A turtle family decided to go on a picnic. The turtles, being naturally slow
about things, took seven years to prepare for their outing. Finally the
turtle family left home looking for a suitable place. During the second year
of their journey they found a place
ideal for them at last!

For about six months they cleaned the area, unpacked the picnic basket, and
completed the arrangements. Then they discovered they had forgotten the
salt. A picnic without salt would be a disaster, they all agreed. After a
lengthy discussion, the youngest turtle was chosen to retrieve the salt from
home. Although he was the fastest of the slow moving turtles, the little
turtle whined, cried, and wobbled in his shell. He agreed to go on one
condition: that no one would eat until he returned. The family consented and
the little turtle left.

Three years passed and the little turtle had not returned. Five years...six
years... then on the seventh year of his absence, the oldest turtle could no
longer contain his hunger. He announced that he was going to eat and begun
to unwrap a sandwich. At that
point the little turtle suddenly popped out from behind a tree shouting,
'See! I knew you wouldn't wait. Now I am not going to go get the salt.'

expectations. We are so concerned about what others are doing that we do not
do anything ourselves.]

<http://www.funkruti.com>*The Frogs*

A farmer came into town and asked the owner of a restaurant if he could use
a million frog legs. The restaurant owner was shocked and asked the man
where he could get so many frog legs! The farmer replied, 'There is a pond
near my house that is full of frogs - millions of them. They all croak all
night long and they are about to make me crazy!' So the restaurant owner and
the farmer made an
agreement that the farmer would deliver frogs to the restaurant, five
hundred at a time for the next several weeks.

The first week, the farmer returned to the restaurant looking rather
sheepish, with two scrawny little frogs. The restaurant owner said, 'Well...
where are all the frogs?' The farmer said, 'I was mistaken. There were only
these two frogs in the pond. But they sure were making a lot of noise!'

[ Next time you hear somebody criticizing or making fun of you, remember,
it's probably just a couple of noisy frogs. Also remember that problems
always seem bigger in the dark. Have you ever laid in your bed at night
worrying about things which seem almost overwhelming like a million frogs
croaking? Chances are pretty good that when the morning comes, and you take
a closer look, you'll wonder what all the fuss was about.]

**The Pretty Lady**

Once upon a time a big monk and a little monk were traveling together. They
came to the bank of a river and found the bridge was damaged. They had to
wade across the river. There was a pretty lady who was stuck at the damaged
bridge and couldn't cross the river. *

<http://www.funkruti.com>
*The big monk offered to carry her across the river on his back. The lady
accepted. The little monk was shocked by the move of the big monk. 'How can
big brother carry a lady when we are supposed to avoid all intimacy with
females?' thought the little monk. But he kept quiet... The big monk carried
the lady across the river and the small monk followed unhappily. When they
crossed the river, the big
monk let the lady down and they parted ways with her. All along the way for
several miles, the little monk was very unhappy with the act of the big
monk. He was making up all kinds of accusations about big monk in his head.
This got him madder and madder. But he still kept quiet. And the big monk
had no inclination to explain his situation.
Finally, at a rest point many hours later, the little monk could not stand
it any further, he burst out angrily at the big monk. 'How can you claim
yourself a devout monk, when you seize the first opportunity to touch a
female, especially when she is very pretty? All your teachings to me make
you a big hypocrite The big monk looked surprised and said, 'I had put down
the pretty lady at the river bank many hours ago, how come you are still
carrying her along?'
*
*[This very old Chinese Zen story reflects the thinking of many people
today. We encounter many unpleasant things in our life, they irritate us and
they make us angry. Sometimes, they cause us a lot of hurt, sometimes they
cause us to be bitter or jealous .. But like the little monk, we are not
willing to let them go away.We keep on carrying the baggage of the 'pretty
lady' with us. **We let them keep on coming back to hurt us, make us angry,
make us bitter and cause us a lot of agony. **Why? Simply because we are not
willing to put down or let go of the baggage of the 'pretty lady'. **We
should let go of the pretty lady immediately after crossing the river. *

<http://www.funkruti.com>*This will immediately remove all our agonies.
There is no need to be further hurt by the unpleasant event after it is
over.]*
