  The oak was extremely proud of his size and strength. His trunk was so thick that it would take several people holding hands to wrap their arms around it.

He had spent the day foraging for food with little success and was now taking a different route home, hoping to find something interesting along the way.

  As he padded silently through the underbrush, the fox’s keen nose detected an unusual scent—not the familiar smell of forest creatures or plants, but something distinctly human. Following his curiosity, he crept closer to investigate.

• The Bundle of Sticks Jan 12, 2025

  

  In a small village nestled between rolling hills and fertile farmland, there lived an old farmer who had worked hard all his life to build a prosperous homestead. He had three grown sons who helped him tend the land, care for the animals, and maintain their property.

  The farmer should have been content with his life’s work and proud of his strong, capable sons. However, there was one thing that caused him great worry and sadness: his sons were constantly fighting with each other.

• The Miller, His Son, and Their Ass Jan 12, 2025

  

  Early one morning, a miller and his young son prepared to take their donkey to the market in the neighboring town. They planned to sell the hardworking animal, as they needed money to buy grain for the coming season. The donkey was healthy and strong, and they hoped to get a good price for him.

  “Come along, son,” said the miller, loading a few supplies for their journey. “We’ll walk alongside our donkey to keep him fresh and strong-looking for potential buyers. A tired donkey won’t fetch as good a price.”

For many generations, they had lived relatively peaceful lives, venturing out at night to gather crumbs and bits of food that the human family had dropped during the day.

  But this peaceful existence came to an abrupt end when the farmers brought home a large, sleek cat to deal with what they saw as a growing mouse problem. The cat was young, quick, and had an excellent sense of hearing and smell. Worse yet, she seemed to take great pleasure in hunting mice.

The sheep were content and safe, protected by the shepherd’s vigilance and the strong fence that surrounded their pasture.

  Not far from this peaceful scene, a cunning wolf prowled the nearby forest, his yellow eyes constantly watching the flock with hunger and frustration. Day after day, he would circle the pasture, looking for any weakness in the fence or any moment when the shepherd might be distracted.
