A mouse peering in through a crack in the wall to observe the farmer and his wife, when opening the package. There’s a toy, he thought. But the mouse surprised that inside the package is a mousetrap.

Running to the farm fields, mouse was screaming a warning, “Beware, there is a mousetrap in the house!” The cock crowed calmly while still scratching the ground, lifted his head and said, “Yes, I’m sorry Mouse. I know this is a big problem for you, but not for me. So, don’t make me headache.”

The mouse turned to the goat, he said, “There is a mousetrap in the house!” The goat replied sympathetically, “Well, I’m sorry with this news. But there is nothing I can do except pray. Be assured, you are always in my prayers.”

The mouse then turned toward the cow. “Oh! A mousetrap? So I’m in a great danger huh?” cow said, laughing out loud.

So the mouse returned to the house, head down and feel so heartbroken, upset and sad, was forced to face a mousetrap itself. He felt so lonely.

Night fell and the sound echoed throughout the house, such as the sound of a mousetrap that debuted catch prey. Farmer’s wife ran to see what are trapped. In the darkness, she could see that it trapped a venomous snake. The snake had pegged the farmer’s wife hand. That farmer rushed her to the hospital.

The wife returned with her little weak body, fever. It’s a habit, every sick person that has fever, one of the medicine is eating the fresh warm chicken soup. The farmer is sharpening his knife and went into the cage, looking for the main chicken soup ingredient.  

But the poison is really bad, the wife still sick. The fever does not go away. Many neighbors came to visit. The farmer had to prepare food and forced to made goat in the cage into goulash. Still that was not enough, the poison could not be conquered. The wife dead and hundred people came to attend the funeral, as well salvation. There is no other way, the cow cooked for dozens of people who attend the salvation.

Dear, if you hear someone who has a problem and you think that the problem has nothing to do with you, remember, if there is a “mousetrap” in the house, the whole “farms” bear the risk. Selfishness more harm than the opposite.
