The Turtle And The Hermit Crabs


The Turtle and the Hermit Crabs.

A sea turtle, while swimming through the deep, came upon two hermit crabs who were having a disagreement.

"Hello crabs," said the turtle, "What do you do?"

"Oh hello turtle," replied one crab, "the two of us are arguing over who should occupy a new shell we have found."

"Amazing!" said the turtle, "that you can choose a better shell when it comes along, while I am stuck in this one."

"I suppose it would be amazing, " said the crab, "were it not for all the other crabs. Whereas your shell comes at birth, we crabs must fight and scavenge, search and bicker, for a shell of our own."

Conflict is the currency of choice.
