Hello everyone! Today's motivational story is "The Dog And His Shadow Story"

Once upon a time...

A dog had a nice piece of meat for his dinner, some say it was stolen. But others that it had been given him by a butcher, which we hope was the case dogs like best to eat at home and he went trotting along with the meat in his mouth as happy as a king.

On the dog's way, there was a stream with a plank across it, as the water was still and clear he stopped to take a look at it. What should he see as he gazed into its bright depths, but a dog as big as himself looking up at him and low, the dog had meat in his mouth.

I'll try to get that said he, then with both mine and his what a feast I shall have. As quick as thought he snapped at the meat, but in doing so he had to open his mouth and his own peace fell to the bottom of the stream.

Then he saw that the other dog had lost his peace too, he went sadly home in trying to grasp a shadow, He lost his substance.

You've seen life, in your life! So once you have what you are looking for enjoying it, and don't risk it for what facade the world sometimes plays in front of your eyes, and don't be greedy. This is there to the motivation stories thanks for reading this article and stay blessed
