The Blind Tortoise with a Lamp

Once upon a time, there lived a blind tortoise called Steve in town of Maryland. He was very fond of taking a walk after dinner, and he always carried a lighted lamp in his hand every time he went out at night.
On one dark night he was going with his lighted lamp in his hand. Tom the rabbit was passing that way.
He saw Steve and made fun of him. He said," O Blind tortoise, why do you carry the lighted lamp?". "You are blind and cannot see anything!", he added, mocking Steve.
Steve politely replied, "This lamp isn't for me, but for the people who have eyes. I may not see you coming my way, but you will be able to see a blind tortoise coming your way. Tom felt ashamed and apologized immediately.
