One afternoon, some fishermen were passing by a pond and found it full of fish.
Since they were already returning after catching fish they decided to come back the next morning. Three fish were swimming on the surface when they heard the fishermen discuss their plans.
The first fish panicked. She assembled all other fish and told them what they had heard. She said, "Tomorrow morning the fishermen will arrive to catch us. It will not be wise for anybody to stay here any longer! I will leave with my family at the earliest."
The second fish agreed, "I shall follow you my friend for what you say is correct. It will be unwise to remain here anymore !"
But the third fish disagreed. He laughed at the two fish, and said, "See how cowardly these two are ! This pond belonged to our forefathers, and it is our home now. For so long no harm has ever come to the fish of this pond. Moreover, if death has to come, let us rather die bravely in our own home !".
Thus, the fish got divided into two groups. The group that wanted to stay laughed at the other group. However, by evening, the families and followers of the first two fish started their journey to a different pond through a small outlet.
The next morning the fishermen arrived as they had planned, and trapped all the fish that remained in the pond. Not a single fish was spared, and the fishermen were overjoyed with the big haul of fish that they had caught.
