The Pregnant Dog and Elephant
An elephant and a dog got pregnant at the same time. In the space of 3 months, the dog gave birth to six puppies. The dog took in again 6 months later and in the 9th month gave birth to another dozen puppies. The pattern continued.
On the Eighteenth month, the dog proud-fully approached the elephant and questioned,
“Are you sure you are pregnant or just carrying the look of it?
We became pregnant on the same date, I have given birth three times to a dozen puppies and they are now grown to become big dogs, yet you are still pregnant. What’s going on?”.
The elephant smiled luxuriously
and replied, “There is something I want you to understand. What I am carrying is not a puppy but an elephant. I only give birth to one in two years. When my baby hits the ground, the earth feels it.
When she crosses the road, human beings stop and watch in admiration, what I carry is mighty and draws attention. So don’t you make any comparison because we are not mates anywhere.”
Moral of the story
Don’t be haters of those who have success, don’t be envious, and do not talk them down if you haven’t received your blessing from GOD.
