Interesting conversation between Camels
A mother and a baby camels were lazing around, and suddenly the baby camel
ask...
Baby : Mother, mother, can I ask you some question?
Mother: Sure! why son, is there something bothering you?
Baby : Why do camel have humps?
Mother: Well son, we are desert animals, we need the humps to store water
and we are known to survive without water.
Baby : Okay, then why are our legs long and our feet rounded? Mother: Son,
obviously they are meant for walking in the desert. You know with these legs
I can move around the desert better than anyone...! Said the mother proudly.
Baby : Okay, then why are our eye lashes long? Sometimes it is bothering my
sight.
Mother: My son, those long thick eye lashes are your protective cover. They
help to protect your eyes from the desert sand and wind. Said mother camel
with eyes brimming with pride.
Baby : 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 protects my
eyes from the desert. Then what the hell are we doing here in the zoo???
MORAL OF THE STORY:
"SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE, ABILITIES AND EXPERIENCES ARE ONLY USEFUL IF YOU ARE AT
THE RIGHT PLACE"
