Selfless Help has its Reward

Once an ant was very thirsty. He went to a pond to drink water. When he began to

drink water, a wave wept him away. He was about to drown. 

As hard as she tried she could not manage to swim to the bank.

At that moment a dove flew by and seeing the struggling ant. took pity on her distress.

She broke a branch from a nearby tree. And dropped it into the water. The ant did not

delay but clambered nimbly on to the branch and at last reached the safety of the bank.

Not long after this, the ant was out for a stroll when she came upon the dove again. A hunter was just about to trap the bird. The ant noticed it. At once the ant

remembered the great help of the dove. She thought she must do something for

the dove. She could not let one die before her eyes who once saved her life. So she

hurriedly but on the sly got to the hunter and bit him severely. Being

troubled by the ant the hunter moved forward which caused a sound. Hearing the

sound the dove could escape from being trapped by flying away.

Afterwards the dove met the ant and expressed her gratefulness to her. 

Since then they became good friends.

In fact, helping others selflessly never goes unrewarded. 

One who helps others selfessly is helped by others somehow, somewhere, some time.
