The Two Goats
Two Goats were searching gayly on the slopes of a rocky mountain valley, risked to meet, one on each side of a profound gap through which poured a huge mountain downpour. The trunk of a fallen tree shaped the lone method for crossing the gap, and on this not so much as two squirrels might have passed each other in wellbeing. The limited way would have made the most courageous shudder. Not really our Goats. Their pride would not allow either to stand to the side for the other.
One set her foot on the log. The other did the same. In the center they met horn to horn. Neither would give way, thus the two of them fell, to be cleared away by the thundering downpour below.
It is better to yield than to come to misfortune through stubbornness.
The Fox and the Stork
The Fox one day thought about a plan to joy himself at the detriment of the Stork, at whose odd appearance he was continually snickering.
"You should come and eat with me today," he said to the Stork, grinning to himself at the stunt he planned to play. The Stork readily acknowledged the greeting and invitation and reached in time and with an excellent craving.
For supper the Fox served soup.Intendingly, it was set out in an extremely shallow dish, and all the Stork could do was to wet the actual tip of his bill. Not a drop of soup could he get. However, the Fox lapped it up effectively, and, to build the disappointment of the Stork, made an extraordinary demonstration of happiness.
The ravenous Stork was highly disappointed at the stunt, yet he was a quiet, good-temper individual and saw nothing but bad in going ballistic.
Instead, not long thereafter, he welcomed the Fox to feast with him thus. The Fox showed up instantly at the time that had been set, and the Stork served a fish supper that had an extremely inviting smell. However, it was served in a tall container with an extremely tight neck. The Stork could without much of a stretch get at the food with his long bill, yet all the Fox could do was to lick the outside of the container, and sniff at the heavenly scent. Furthermore, when the Fox blew his top, the Stork said smoothly:
Try not to pull pranks on your neighbors except if you can stand a similar treatment yourself.
The Stag and His Reflection
A Stag, drinking from a clear spring, saw himself reflected in the crystal water. He enormously respected the elegant curve of his antlers, yet he was particularly embarrassed about his spindling legs.
"How might it be," he moaned, "that I ought to be reviled with such legs when I have so radiant a crown."
At that point, he scented a puma and in a moment was bouncing away through the woodland. In case, as he ran his wide-spreading antlers trapped in the branches of the trees, and soon the Panther surpassed him. Then, at that point, the Stag understood that the legs of which he was so embarrassed would have saved him had it not been for the futile adornments on his head.
We mostly make a big deal about the despise and loathe the useful.
