The boy and the arrows

Once upon a time a time there was a boy who shot arrows from only ten inches away from his target.As this was so, of course every time he shot, he always hit the bull's eye dead centre. Now, he was a very selfish little boy and always bragged to his friends that he could hit the bull's eye every time.One day while he was bragging to his large group of friends, an old man walked by, and being tinterested in the conversation, he asked the little boy,"Why are you bragging?".The little boy replied,"Every time I shoot an arrow, I always hit the bull's eye dead centre."The old man thought for a moment and said,"Oh, is that so?Then why don't you show us your amazing skills?", he asked gesturing to the large group of boys.The selfish little boy did so.He mounted his arrow, stood ten inches away from his target and all his three tries hit the bull's eye.The wise old man stroked his beard and said, "Boy, stand one hundred feet away from the target and shoot." The boy shot three times, three times he missed.The old man chuckled and said laughingly,"you see?You are not as good as you claimed you were.You chose too easy a target."The End

But one bright morning, he counted his sheep to find that one was missing.He counted again. He counted a third time.No doubt, there were only ninety-nine sheep. He looked everywhere for the lost sheep, but the sheep was nowhere to be found.So the boy went home.The next day, another sheep was missing. Once again, the boy couldn't find the sheep.So the boy went home, feeling sorry for himself. On the third day, another sheep was missing.Only ninety-seven were left.
