Croaking of a Million Frogs

A farmer came into town and asked the owner of a restaurant 
if he could use a million frog legs. The restaurant owner was 
shocked and asked the man where he could get so many frog legs! 
The farmer replied: 
"There is a pond near my house that is full of frogs--millions of them. 
They all croak during the night and drive me crazy!"
So, the restaurant owner and the farmer made an agreement that 
the farmer would deliver five hundred frogs to the restaurant
at a time - for the next several weeks. 
The first week, the farmer returned to the restaurant looking rather 
sheepish, with two scrawny little frogs. 
The restaurant owner said, "Well...where are all the other frogs?" 
The farmer said, "I was mistaken.
There were only these two frogs in the pond. 
But surely, they were making a lot of noise!"  

So, Next time you hear a lot of noise; criticism and complaints, 
then remember - it might be just a couple of noisy frogs.

Also--remember that problems always seem bigger in the dark. 
Have you ever lain in your bed at night – worrying about things 
which seem almost overwhelming - like a million frogs croaking?
Chances are pretty good that when the morning comes,
and you take a closer look, 
you'll wonder what all the fuss was about . . .
