RE: What is the moral of this Fable ?

in #philosophy6 years ago

Firstly, my sincere condolences for your lost.
Secondly, I enjoyed the parable. The moral of the story... there are multi-angle, multi-fold. I am going to cop out and say, "Ah! That's life." :-)

Thank you very much, @quotes-haven; i like quotes to... because some sayings are worth remembering, and passing along..


Your response is Greatly appreciated, you see from my point of view, you didn't cop out at all... Not one bit in fact!
Your response is perfectly legitimate, you perhaps see how things might have easily gone a different way for the donkey, say for instance the thief made it into the house before the donkey brayed, the master may have rewarded him, and beat the dog for not sounding off.. Many, many ways it "might" have gone, but as you say, "That's Life!" ... Excellent response!
i'll do an After thoughts in a day or 2 and post your response there, along with everyone else's and we can have a discussion ..
Thanks again come back anytime, quick quote for you..

@primal-buddhist I am happy to hear that you like quotes too. I have been a collector of quotes since I was in primary school. I think much of my Life education comes from quotes.
You read my mind! regarding my response to your parable.
Should the dog have barked... should the donkey have brayed... Should they have kept quiet... Each action or non-action will bring about a different outcome. And that is Life! And we know that in life, sometimes shit happens.
By the way, I love, and collect parables too. I was posting them, but cheetah keeps telling me it found similar content elsewhere, so I dropped them all together. I don't have your eloquence in writing, which is why most of my posts are just quotes.
Thanks for the quote by Dr. Seuss. That's one of my favourite quotes. :-)

There certainly is a condensation of Wisdom in the famous quotes of our predecessors..
