Question

a bird in hand is worth two in the bush
story

Answer 1

A bird in the hand is worth two in a bush.




A bird in the hand is worth two in a bush. 

This English proverb implies that we should be content with what is definitely with us than risking it for the sake of something which is not with us. It also says that those who run after plausible promises and hopes leaving the opportunities in hand. Hence one should aim higher goals only after making the maximum use of the available opportunities. 


A bird which has been caught and is in our hand is definitely more worth than two in the bush, because the two birds are free and not yet caught. 


The story of the greedy dog is a good example of this proverb. In this story the dog has a bone in his mouth and walks over the river bridge and looks into the water where he sees a reflection of himself. He thinks that there is another dog with bone inside the river and jumps into the river and loses his bone in the process. So the bottom line is that we should not risk something which is already in our possession. 


This story tells us that we should care for what is with us at the moment and should not run after the things thinking the false promises and hopes.

Answer 2

Once upon a time, there lived a dog. One day he was very hungry. He was wandering in search of food. He went to a butcher’s shop. He stole a piece of meat from the butcher’s shop. He took it in his mouth and ran out of the village. On the way, there was a stream with a narrow bridge over it. When he was crossing the bridge, he saw his own reflection in the water. He took it for another dog with a bigger piece of meat. He decided to snatch that piece of meat from the other dog. So he barked at the dog and jumped into the stream. As soon as he did so, his own piece of meat fell from his mouth and disappeared in the stream. He had to return home hungry.
