CATHERINE AND THE CHEESES #Inspirational Moral
Stories
A farm
girl, Catherine, always got into trouble because of her stupidity. As
she was
carrying the cheeses in a basket one day, one fell out and rolled
down the
hill. Being lazy and not wanting to chase it, she rolled another
cheese
after it! When neither returned, she sent off another, then another, and
another.
Until her basket was empty! Growing impatient, she called out: ‘I’m
leaving
now and you cheeses can follow me!’ When she met her husband, he
shouted
at her: ‘Why have you come empty-handed?’ The stupid Catherine
replied:
‘Don’t worry, the cheeses will be rolling along here in a few
minutes!’
