THE LIZARD STORY
In
order to renovate the house, Kiko broke 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.
Curious because when he checked the nail, he realized that the nail was nailed
10 years ago when the house was first built !
What
happened? Why did the lizard survive in such position for 10 years? In a dark
wall partition for 10 years without moving, it is impossible and mind-boggling.
So
Kiko 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 had 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.
