the three blind man

There were three blind men who came across an elephant. The first one felt the leg of the elephant and said, “An elephant is like a tree trunk.” The second blind man felt the ear of the elephant and said, “No, no, the elephant is like a big fan.” The third blind man touched the trunk of the elephant and said, “Both of you are wrong! An elephant is in fact like a big snake!"

Moral of the Story

All the three blind men were correct in their explanation of the elephant. They explained according to what information they had. In life we may interpret situations differently from others. Just because we see things differently does not mean that others are wrong. We see things according to our beliefs, values, and references, which we pick up along the way in our journey through life.

Have a fantastic day!!
