This story is about a boy named Tim who habitually takes shortcuts. One day, he decides to take a shortcut across a frozen lake, despite warnings from his friends, and falls through the ice. This dangerous incident teaches him a valuable lesson about the potential dangers of taking shortcuts.
Let's illustrate the saying 'shortcuts are dangerous' with a story. Suppose there's a young boy named Tim who loves taking shortcuts in every aspect of life, whether it was the quickest way home from school, or finding the easiest method to solve his math homework. One day, Tim decided to take a shortcut across a frozen lake on his way home from school, instead of taking the longer path round the lake. Despite his friends' warnings, he believed he knew best, and bravely embarked on his journey. Halfway across, the ice started cracking under Tim's feet, and he fell into the freezing water. Thankfully, his friends were there to alert the nearby adults who managed to pull Tim out. From that day on, Tim learned that taking shortcuts can indeed be dangerous and it's sometimes better to put in the time and effort to ensure safety and accuracy.
Peril
and
danger
are two things he wouldn't forget going forward.
The lesson?
It is often much safer to take the conventional route rather than risky shortcuts.
