The Pig and the Cow
On a certain day, a rich man from a village in
Britain complained to his friend: “People don't like me. They are saying that I
am selfish and stingy. And yet in my last will and testament I have donated all
that I own to charitable cause.”
His friend answered him with a story,
“In a house there were two animals, a pig and a
cow. One day the pig came to the cow and complained:
“People always talk about
your friendliness. I know you are friendly, you do give them milk. But they get
much, much more from me. They get ham and bacon and lard and they even cook my
feet. And yet - no one likes me. To all of them I am just a pig, a hog. Why is
that?”
The cow thought it over a bit and then said: “Perhaps it's because I give while I am still alive”
Moral - Give care and love at the right time.

Very true...Someone once said , The best gifts one can give to someone are not things, the best ones to offer are a little Time, Love, Care and Respect.
It's very correct to act upon or to work on the moral of the story
