The dog and his reflection One day, a dog took a bone from a shop. He ran off with it before anyone could catch him. He came to a river and went over the bridge. As he looked down into the water, he saw another dog with a bone ! He did not know that the dog he saw in the water was a reflection of himself. "That dog has a big bone. It is as big as mine," he said. "I will jump into the water and take it from him." So in he jumped. When he was in the water, he could not see the other dog. And he could not see the other bone either. He had lost his own bone, too, because it fell as he jumped in. So, because he was greedy, he got nothing in the end. Moral : If you want more because you are greedy, in the end you might find you have less.
