New “A wolf and a Lamb”

New Roman">    New “A wolf and a Lamb”

On grassland there was a lamb. He was the meekest and most obedient of all animals. He had no other desires in life but to have enough grass to eat. He wanted no luxury. He was in short of nothing but some fresh grass. From time to time he might have a sunbath, and that was the most extravagant thing in the world for him to share.

One day in spring he was meandering in the meadow, eating grass randomly. Once for a while he would meet and say hello to his friends like the rabbit, the dragonfly, and the deer. He so contend with life. Unwittingly he came to the bank of a river. He decided to drink some water since he didn’t have any water for his breakfast. It was only after his mouth left the water did he realize what was happening to him--- a wild wolf was standing before him.

“Why did you make my water dirty, you little bastard?” the wolf shouted with a protruded tongue and exposure of teeth. Tremulously the lamb protested: “My dear Mr. Wolf, you are from the upstream while I am from the downstream. How can I make your water dirty?”

“Really?” with a vicious quick turn of the wit the wolf went on: “Well, you bullied my little son and flee last year. How will you explain this?” “My benevolent Mr. Wolf, I was not even born last year.” “Then it must be your father. It is all the same with me.” The wolf jumped toward the poor little lamb.

Under the totalitarian rule, can you have any chance to excuse yourself even if you have done nothing wrong? The lamb will never be match for the wolf.
