| A hat-seller who was passing by a  forest decided to take a nap under one of the trees,so he left his whole basket of  hats by his side. A few hours later, he woke up and realized that all his hats  were gone. He looked up and, to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys that  had taken all his hats.
 The hat seller sat down and  thought of how he could get the hats down.
 While thinking, he started to  scratch his head. The next moment, the monkeys were doing the same. Next, he  took off his own hat and the monkeys did exactly the same. An
 idea came to his mind. He took  his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did that
 too. So he finally managed to get  all his hats back.
 …Fifty years later, his grandson,  Sukhwinder, also became a hat-seller and had heard this monkey story from his  grandfather. One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest.  It was very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the  ground.He woke up and realized that all  his hats had been taken by the monkeys on the tree.
 He remembered his grandfather's  words and started scratching his head. The monkeys followed suit.
 He took off  his hat and fanned himself, Again the monkeys followed.  Now, very convinced of his grandfather's idea, Sukhwinder threw his hat on the  floor. Hut to his surprise, the monkeys still held on to all the hats.
 Then one monkey climbed down the  tree, grabbed the hat Sukhwinder had thrown down, and gave him a slap.
 Guess!!! What did he say??..... He said, "So, you think you are  the only one with a grandfather!!!???" (In other words, we all have  grandfathers to teach us as well….:) ) Laughlin end!!!       |
