Reading the "Aesop's Fables," this book, so I put it down, there have been many thoughts, and my heart is always thinking about the contents of the book, which the characters emerge from time to time in my eyes.
"Aesop's Fables" is the ancient Greek author of Aesop, the legendary figure he is, he wrote a phenomenon in life are critical, inspiration and lessons learned.
with the most familiar example of several fables to it.
"wolf and the lamb" in talking about this parable is: the wolf wants to eat lamb, and lamb in various ways to quibble. Exposed the darkness of society at that time.
"Tortoise and the Hare" is an allegory, the results we all know, is the tortoise won. Because of his tireless efforts, in exchange for a victory. The rabbit was proud, arrogant. Underestimated the others, he considered himself the most powerful, in fact, have self-confidence is good, but not too confident, because it is not called self-confidence, while the name proud.
I feel most of the other is the "coward" this story, he told a man, timid, poor living conditions, are very greedy and always want something for nothing in the property.
One day, he cut firewood up the mountain. Very tired, carrying wood down the mountain to go home. In the foothills of a small road, saw a golden lion, and he dare not touch, I thought: this is living in the end, or carvings. Lion motionless, not a voice, it must be the statue, which is divine grace given to me, look at poor me, wanted me to sell a good price.
He visited around again, no one is sure to grab the "lion" of the front paws and hind paws, but it is too heavy, Nabuqilai. He seems like a very clever like: strength in numbers up, I moved back with his family as hosts. After that, he ran home.
waiting for him at home, the men and women were recruited when the Golden Lions had disappeared.
He told people that things must be decisive, not procrastination. Otherwise, what becomes very bad. There is a saying that good, "efficiency is money." You have to pay attention to efficiency, if things slow to do anything too bad. This is called "nothing."
"break the statue of the man" is I think the most interesting story, you may wish to listen to it.
one person, his poor beaten and, to a wealthy family to do the groom, the people very rich, he asked his master: how to get rich it?
owner that the issue is complex, like a math problem will never be untied, but he seems to understand the way said: "As long as you buy one at home for the statue, the rich can become." Groom letter.
A few days later, the rich started to eat and drink prostitution block, the money is spent. But his death was in the statue in the possession of a lot of coins.
He was dying, his son called around and said: "Do not sell the statue, and fell rather not sell."
his son that his father was saying nonsense, no seriously. Can he die poor. Home, this is the only god worth the money, put him to sell the groom.
The groom him at home. A year later, he still did not get rich. Angrily, groom the statue fell. At this time, gold coins are out. He got mad and said: "I respect you, you are putting on an act, I broke you, then you know to help me."
reason: to become rich, we should hard-working, with their own hands and brain to make money and be rich, no one else.
I would also like to tell you a story - "donkey and a horse", in ancient times, there is always a state of war, so people have to keep a horse at home, ready to ride in time of war.
A young man, raised a very good horse and a very ordinary donkey, horses eat well every day. The donkeys do heavy work every day, do not say, not as horses eat.
ass do not understand, ask horse: Why do you eat well, not to work? And I was very tired every day? "
"I do not know why the owner so good to me, but I know that every donkey is to be a drudge." Donkey does not say anything.
few days, but also initiated the war. Close to the young man home from the battlefield, to fight a young man riding a horse.
donkey ran to see, he saw everyone in the war. At this time, his master, hacked to death by others, is on his side very sad. The enemy can not see the past, the horse hacked to death.
ass home, very sad, to know why the owner of the horse so well, it does not care about.
easy life is always behind the risk will occur, the price is too high, while the busy life, it seems difficult but it can be safe.
was not this story is so interesting, would like to hear one? I'll repeat that a "shepherd and a donkey," the story.
when a shepherd in the hunt, found a coyote, he saw that the poor out of it, take home, and the dog with the possessor, they grow up to care sheep.
One day, a wolf ran off at night to a goat, the wolf to catch, but this sheep has been killed, and with it, and that a wolf eat the sheep, only to find it this time, lamb is so delicious.
home, it does not want to eat. Another day, the wolf came to steal the sheep, the wolf family to pretend to chase the wolf, ran out, you eat the sheep and wolves yet another.
Wolf do not come for several days, the wolf and the dog took the sheep to eat Diao. Panoramic view of all this is the shepherd, the next day, he took the wolf to kill.
can not believe the bad things, there is a saying: leopard change its spots. Indeed it is.
