  經典勵志英文小故事:狗和它的影子

  It happened that a dog had some meat that he wanted to eat at home. On his way home he met a river. As he looked down, he saw his shadow in the water.

  "Just look!"said he to himself. "That dog down there has some meat, too. If I could get it away from him, I would really eat well tonight!"

  With this thought, he made a snap at the other dog's meat. And as he did, his own meat fell into the water. So then he had nothing at all.

  Then he saw that the other dog had lost his meat, too.

  "That is as it should be!?thought he. "For I saw him trying to take my meat away from me."

  By wanting to have everything, he has lost everything he had!

  這麼想著,他就衝那隻影子狗咬去,這時候他自己的肉掉進了水裡。當然他什麼也沒有得到。

  然後,他看到另一隻狗的肉也沒了。“活該!”他想,“因為我看到他想從我這裡搶走我的肉。”

  什麼都想要,卻失去了原來所擁有的!
