The Oak tree always thought that he was far stronger than the reeds. He said to himself "I stand upright in a storm. I don't bend my head in fear every time the wind blows. But these reeds are really so weak."
That very night blew a storm and the mighty oak tree was uprooted.
"Good God!" sighed the reeds, "our way is better. We bend but we don't break."
"Good God!" sighed the reeds, "our way is better. We bend but we don't break."
MORAL : Pride hath a fall
If we turn the pages of the history, we see that kings lost their kingdoms, aspirants got distracted from their Spiritual quest, etc for only only reason - Pride in their heart. There should not pride of any kind. Otherwise it leads to only one destination. That's fall.
