Description:Translation (Seng Pan) The story I am going to tell you is about a crocodile and monkey. Once upon a time, a crocodile lived in a jungle. Every day, he peacefully lay beside a stream by opening his mouth. He spent his day by lying alone on a flat rock. And he didn't attack any animals in the jungle. Although other animals teased him, he didn't harm them back, and he always tried to be patient. The crocodile was the most tolerant one there. One day, a group of monkeys came to him and tested him. The monkeys scratched his head and back. Some of them pulled his tail. However, the crocodile stayed peacefully as usual. He didn't hurt the animals that made him feel annoyed. And he just kept opening his mouth. So, he didn't get angry at the monkeys even though how hard they scratched him and pulled his tail. However, the monkeys didn't stop their actions. They even more threw stones into his mouth. Since the monkeys were originally playful animals, they teased the crocodile in every ways they could. The monkeys hurled the stones to him, pulled his tail, put their hands into his mouth and so on. Not only that but also the monkeys jumped from the tree to the crocodile's body. They stepped on him too. Although they teased the crocodile many times, he didn't respond anything. He only opened his mouth wide and stay quiet. Since, the crocodile didn't take action to the monkeys, they came and teased him every day. One day, a monkey was fallen into the crocodile mouth while playing. At that time, the crocodile swallowed the monkey and went into the water. Therefore, anyone of us can fall into trouble if we mess around in bad way. These monkeys were so naughty. They bothered the crocodile by scratching his back and head, pulling his tail and throwing the stones to him. It is like they found their grave by themselves. There are also many wild animals that are well behaved. The crocodile didn't attack back the monkeys although they teased him badly. Moreover, he didn't hurt other animals like birds whether they fooled around him. However, the monkey fell into the crocodile's mouth and died at last since it played excessively. So, everyone of us should not tease other persons badly without caring whether they like it or not. If not, you will be like digging your grave with your own hands. We should be mindful when we interact with others. The animals are not so patient. And the humans are more impatient. Although we restrain ourselves from anger, we cannot hold it for long. When someone passes our limit too many times, we would do something back to them. From the beginning, the crocodile stayed in a position to eat the monkeys. However, he wouldn't swallow them if they didn't pass his limit of patience. Since they played foolishly, the crocodile ate them.
