The Right Place
A mother and a baby camel were lying around under a tree.
Then the baby camel asked, “Why do camels have humps?”
The mother camel considered this and said, “We are desert
animals so we have the humps to store water so we can survive with very little
water.”
The baby camel thought for a moment then said, “Ok…why are
our legs long and our feet rounded?”
The mama replied, “They are meant for walking in the
desert.”
The baby paused. After a beat, the camel asked, “Why are our
eyelashes long? Sometimes they get in my way.”
The mama responded, “Those long thick eyelashes protect your
eyes from the desert sand when it blows in the wind.
The baby thought and thought. Then he said, “I see. So the
hump is to store water when we are in the desert, the legs are for walking
through the desert and these eye lashes protect my eyes from the desert then
why in the Zoo?”
The Lesson: Skills and abilities are only useful if you are
in the right place at the right time. Otherwise they go to waste.
