Renungan 'Perangkap Tikus'

Membantu masalah orang lain adalah suatu tindakan positif yang harus kita lakukan setiap waktu,meskipun itu bukan masalah kita.Dari cerita berikut kita akan mengetahui pentingnya saling membantu dalam menghadapi masalah.
Berikut adalah kutipan ceritanya :
Suatu ketika ada seekor tikus yang sedang ketakutan karena ada perangkap tikus di keranjang yang diletakkan oleh Pak Tani untuk menjebaknya. Lalu si tikus menceritakan hal itu kepada ayam,sapi,dan kambing. Si ayam meremehkan karena tempatnya berbeda dengan si tikus dan ayam merasa dia bukan tikus jadi tidak perlu khawatir dengan jebakan tikus,begitu pula si sapi.Si sapi berpendapat,dia berada diluar rumah sedangkan tikus di dalam.Sedangkan si kambing hanya bisa mendoakannya saja.
Suatu malam ada seekor ular yang terperangkap di dalam perangkap tikus itu, lalu istri petani melihatnya karena gelap dan di dalam keranjang tak begitu jelas,ia meraba kedalam perangkap ia pun di gigit oleh ular tersebut.
Untuk menyelamatkan dan merawat istrinya Pak Tani membuat sup ayam dari ayamnya di peternakan,lalu karena banyak tamu yang menjenguk dan tidak ada makanan Pak Tani membuat gulai kambing dari kambingnya.Tak lama istri Pak Tani tidak dapat bertahan lagi dan akhirnya meninggal.Banyak pelayat yang datang kerumahnya karena tidak ada makanan untuk para pelayat,akhirnya sapinya pun dijadikan makanan bagi orang-orang yang datang.

Dari cerita di atas,kita dapat mengambil sebuah pelajaran yang sangat penting yaitu betapa pentingnya membantu masalah orang lain meskipun itu bukan masalah kita.Orang yang acuh tak acuh dengan masalah orang lain hanya akan mendapat masalah pada dirinya.Seperti yang terjadi pada ayam,sapi,dan kambing di cerita di atas.

::LeLouch Lamperogue::

Lelouch was born on December 5 1999 as Lelouch vi Britannia the son of the Emperor of Britannia, Charles zi Britannia, and the late Imperial Consort Marianne, making Lelouch the Eleventh Prince of the Holy Britannian Empire.He was seventeenth in line to Imperial throne prior to his mother's assassination, an event which also left his sister blind and crippled. A ten year old Lelouch confronted the Emperor afterward and accused him of leaving his mother defenseless, even going as far as renouncing his entitlement to the throne. In response, his father banished him to Japan, where he was used as a political hostage in the Sakuradite conflict.

It was during his stay at the Kururugi household that he first met Suzaku Kururugi, with whom the young Lelouch did not interact initially in a friendly manner,before later becoming friends. However, when Britannia finally developed its Knightmare Frames, they decided to invade Japan to seize control of the Sakuradite mines, consequently discarding Lelouch's use as a diplomatic tool. Lelouch, fearing for his and his sister's safety, hid their true identities and sought the help of the Ashford family, who were his mother's allies.

His mother's death and his father's apparent lack of concern in regards to it were huge blows to Lelouch. He always felt that it was unfair for both his mother and sister, and therefore made it his goal to pursue a better world for Nunally. He also seeks to discover the true reason for his mother's death, as she was murdered in the Ares Imperial Palace, a place terrorists would be unlikely to penetrate successfully without being noticed, if at all.

Lelouch possesses very strong philosophical beliefs: beliefs that define both his actions and his motivation for them. Perhaps his most notable is that he is against his father's beliefs of Social Darwinism. He believes the world can live in cooperation rather than competition and conflict. To achieve this aim, he believes that the ends justify the means; he is willing to commit evil if it means bringing down a worse evil in the process. Lelouch also has strong beliefs concerning death and killing. Notably, he states several times through the series his belief that the only people who should kill should be those who are themselves prepared to be killed.
