The moral of the lizard story is ……

I came across this forwarded email sometimes back and thought want to show with you guys. It’s full of sentiments and value of life. Please read it through and you will find come words are in bold. hehe, no worries, the meaning for the bold text will be given after the story.

This is a true story that happened in Japan.
In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan breaks open the wall.
Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls. When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there because a nail from outside hammered into one of its feet. He sees this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as when he checked the nail, it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was! first built.
What happened?
The lizard has survived in such position for 10 years! In a dark wall partition for 10 years without moving, it is impossible and mind-boggling. Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years! without moving a single step–since its foot was nailed!
So he stopped his work and observed the lizard, what it has been doing, and what and how it has been eating. Later, not knowing from where it came, appears another lizard, with food in its mouth. Ah! He was stunned and touched deeply. For the lizard that was stuck by nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 10 years…
Imagine? it has been doing that untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner.
Think, will u do that to your partner?
As information and communication technology advances, our access to information becomes faster and faster. But the distance between human beings . . . is it getting closer as well?

Please never abandon your loved ones.

Nice touching story of the loving lizards huh. lolz, yea, i do agree the moral of the story is really touching and makes me have little enlightenments to live like a man with a heart full of love and care but… my personal advice to this kinda forwarded mail creator, do your homework before spreading such news. As i said previously, the value of the story is nice but do you know that the true story is NOT true?? 1st of all, a common lizard’s life span is only 2-3 years and how the heck can it live up to 10 years with a nail on its leg. Ridiculously making the readers a fool, ain’t it. If the writer is about to defend himself that he’s talking about those bigger lizard like monitor lizard or gecko, it’s habitat obviously doesn’t match what the writer had mention. So ,my personal advice is, if you wanna write about something, please do some research and exaggerate with (at least) lil bit of logic, don’t make others and yourself like a fool.

So the moral of the story is, when you want to nail your wall, make sure you chase away all the lizards behind the plank before you hammer on it, else another lizard will be troubled to feed the trapped one for 100 years 10 years. lolz 😛
