A Dog and its Shadow /story

Once a dog became hungry. He was searching for food here and there. Then he went to a nearby market. He noticed a butcher’s shop. The butcher was not in the shop. He stole a piece of meat from the shop. Then he left the place hurriedly. On the way he had to cross a bridge. So he was crossing the river bridge with the piece of meat in his mouth. Suddenly his eyes rested on the water. He saw his shadow in the water below. He thought that it was another dog with another piece of meat. He said to himself, “I want this piece of meat too”. So he thought for a moment and barked to threaten the other dog 🐶. As a result the piece of meat fell into the river water. The dog then barked again and again but in vain. He left the place being disappointed.

Moral- Grasp all, lose all.// Your foolishness is your greatest enemy.
