Source: Yahoo friends A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. "What food might this contain?" The mouse wondered.He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning : "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell that this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it." The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers." The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose." So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap . .. . Alone. . . That very night a sound was heard throughout the house -- the sound.The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did no see it. It was a venomous snake whose tail was caught in the trap.The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. When she returned home she still had a fever.Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup.So the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient: But his wife's sickness continued. Friends and neighbors came to sitwith her around the clock.To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. But, alas, the farmer's wife did not get well... She died. So many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of themfor the funeral luncheon. And the mouse looked upon it all from the crack in the wall with great sadness.So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and you think it doesn't concern you, remember --- When one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.We are all involved in this journey called life.We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another. YOU MAY WANT TO SEND THIS TO EVERYONE WHOHAS EVER HELPED YOU OUT... AND LET THEM KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE. - REMEMBER - EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY. OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHERFOR A REASON. One of the best things to hold ontoIn this world is a FRIEND.
