THE OLD MAN AND THE PARROT STORY


An old man was very lonely because he lost hs wife. he missed her very much especially their meal time talk and laughter.
one day the old man decided to buy a parrot. he thought the parrot would be the best pet to have because it could talk to him. the next morning he visited the parrot seller in the morning.
The seller provided him an option to choose from his many parrot birds. one parrot asked for food, another asked for drink, one just made noise, only one sat quietly. the old man asked the parrot why it was silent. the parrot replied "i think more" what a wise bird, thought the old man, happily, then he bought the quiet parrot.

 Now everyday the old man try to teach his new bird how to talk, sing and make a new sound. sadly the

parrt refused to learn anything new. it will only repeat "i think more" the disappointed old man angrily said, "Oh parrot you are a fool and i am a bigger fool because i belived you were wise simply because you pretended to think more.
lesson;
 Do not be deceived by those who pretend to be what they are not.
