The Oxen and the Wheels
Author: Aesop
A heavily loaded wagon was being pulled along a muddy
country road by a pair of oxen. To pull the wagon, they had to use all of their
strength, but they were unfazed.
The wagon's wheels were of a different kind. They were given
a much easier task than the oxen, but they still groaned constantly. The loud
whining of the Wheels filled the ears of the poor Oxen as they struggled
mightily to pull the wagon through the thick mud. And as you are probably
aware, this made it much harder for them to put up with their work.
Finally losing patience, the Oxen cried,
"Silence!". "
Moral
The least harmed people complain the loudest.
