It is said that several animals decided to found a school. They gathered around in the forest and began to choose the subjects:
The bird insisted that the flying subject was important... The fish chose swimming as part of the curriculum, on the other hand the squirrel found that going up on trees was essential,
The rabbit wanted racing above everything else... But suddenly they realised they had made a big mistake: they insisted that all animals should carried out all the subjects..
The rabbit was magnificent in the race, nobody ran like it, but they wanted to teach him how to fly... So he was put on a tree and told: "Fly, rabbit". So he jumped from the top, broke his legs and as a result he didn't learn to fly AND broke his legs...
The bird flew like no other, but it was forced to dig holes like the mole. It broke its beak and wings, and could not even fly anymore nor dig holes.
Sooo... what is the MORAL of the STORY: we are all different in many ways!
Each one of us has something good to offer and we cannot force others to be like us. At the same time we cannot accept to be the way the others want us to be..
We will end up causing them to suffer, and in the end they will not be what we wanted them to be nor what they were in first place...
