WHEN YOU TOUCH MY GRANDFATHER BECOMES A RING – MILLIPEDE.

It hides itself by putting its head inside enough to make sure that it is safe from enemies. That is why people say that, “when you touch my grandfather becomes a ring – millipede.”

This riddle is compared to the person who becomes easily offended by even small thing. He gets angry to the point of refusing even to eat in his life. This man refuses to eat even though he is offended by something which has no connection with food because of the pride of his little patience. He is tormented by the grief of the people, because of his fasting after being offended by every one even in minor things.

This person resembles to the millipede that rolls around becoming a ring every time when one touches it, because he also refuses eat every time when one offends him even in little things in his life. That is why people say to him, “when you touch my grandfather becomes a ring – millipede.”

This riddle teaches people on how to be courageous enough to persevere difficult in life by forgiving whey they offend one another, so that they can better raise their families in their lives.
