the ant and the grasshopper

  After I read the story, I think that it is different with the Aesop fable. Although the beginning of both stories are very sammilar, the ending is totally different. Tom just like the grasshopper, he likes to have fun and don't like to work. And George just likes the ant, he works hard for his whole life. Tom left his family and his job, and went to find his lifestyle. He just like the grasshopper, singing all over the summer, and did't prepare for the winter. He plays for the whole life and don't perpare for the future. George just like the ant, work hard for the future. But the ending is different. Tom has a better life than George, since Tom married with a rich woman. And he didn't need to work while George works very hard. In this story, it told me that this world is very unfair, but we still need to work hard because not all people as lucky as Tom.
