Description

The Belly and the Parts of the Body
One fine day it occurred to the various parts of the Body that they were doing all the work and the Belly was getting all the food. So, they held a meeting, and after a long discussion, decided to stop working until the Belly consented to take its proper share of the work. So, for a day or two, the Hands refused to lift the food, the Mouth refused to take it in, and the Teeth had no work to do. But after a day or two the parts of the body began to find that they were not in good condition: the Hands could hardly move, and the Mouth was all parched and dry, while the Legs were unable to support the rest of the body. So, they found that even the Belly in its dull quiet way was doing necessary work for the Body, and that all must work together, or the entire Body will suffer.
And, the moral is…
Everyone has their burden to bear for the good of themselves and for others.
