The Deer Who Hates His Leg - 1
The Deer Who Hates His Leg - 1
The Deer Who Hates His Leg - 1
Once upon a time, deep in a lush green forest, lived a deer with the most
magnificent horns. He would often admire them, boasting, "No other deer has
beautiful horns like mine!"
One sunny day, while strolling through the woods, he met a little squirrel. The
squirrel, looking up, remarked, "You have splendid horns, but your legs are so
skinny."
This made the deer feel sad, and for the first time, he noticed his legs in his
reflection by the lake. Sighing, he admitted, "It is true. My legs are skinny."
With a strong jump, the deer freed himself. But the hunter and his dog were still
following him. 'I must outrun the hunter’s dog!' the deer thought, as he ran
deeper into the jungle."
His skinny legs, which he had doubted, were now his greatest asset. As he
galloped through the underbrush, the hunter’s dog grew tired and eventually
gave up the chase. The deer, however, kept running, powered by his strong and
speedy legs.
Finally safe, the deer realized how foolish he had been to despise his legs.
Panting but safe, he declared, "I should be thankful for my strong legs. They
saved me today."
And from that day on, the deer never again doubted his legs, understanding how
each part of him had a special purpose, including his skinny, strong legs.
So, my young friends, remember to appreciate what you have, for every feature
you possess is unique and valuable in its own way.
