Save while the times are good

SAVE WHILE THE TIMES ARE GOOD ( Good Story)
Remember the story of the ant and the grasshopper?
In that story, the grasshopper loved to sing and dance in the lovely weather during spring, whereas the ants were working hard to store the food. Grasshopper laughed at them. What a life, he said.
The ants ignored him and continued to work hard. When the cold winter came, the virtue of the savings helped them survive through. The grasshopper was starving and did not know where to go. He lands up at the anthill.
The kind ants take him in and give him food. The grasshopper realized how important it is to save while the times are good. In bad times, anyway, you do not have anything to save.
"Direction is more important than speed. We are so busy looking at our speedo meters that we forget the mile stone."
