πŸ–Œ Moral story of the day πŸ–Œ
The Ass in the Lion's Skin
June 10, 2022 by Aesop's Fables

An Ass found a Lion's skin left in the forest by a hunter. He dressed himself in it, and amused himself by hiding in a thicket and rushing out suddenly at the animals who passed that way. All took to their heels the moment they saw him.
The Ass was so pleased to see the animals running away from him, just as if he were King Lion himself, that he could not keep from expressing his delight by a loud, harsh bray. A Fox, who ran with the rest, stopped short as soon as he heard the voice. Approaching the Ass, he said with a laugh:
"If you had kept your mouth shut you might have frightened me, too. But you gave yourself away with that silly bray."
A fool may deceive by his dress and appearance, but his words will soon show what he really is.

Thanks for reading this story.

πŸ–Œ Moral story of the day πŸ–Œ
🐎The Nail

A tradesman had done a good day’s business at a fair. The next morning, he took his bag of money and rode off on his horse planning to reach home by evening.

On the way, he stopped at an inn for lunch. A stable boy told him that a nail was missing in the shoe of the left foot of the horse. But the tradesman did not listen to him as he was in a .hurry to reach home. A little later, the tradesman was advised by another stable boy to fix a nail on the horse’s shoe but yet again he didn’t pay attention to him in his hurry to reach home as soon as possible. The horse began to limp after some time and soon it fell down and broke its leg. The tradesman had to leave his horse on the way .and walk home. On the way, two robbers attacked him and stole his money.

As the tradesman walked home, battered and beaten, he regretted not fixing the nail on the horse’s shoe in his haste to reach home.

πŸ–Œ Saying of the day πŸ–Œ

πŸ“’ Never speak ill of the dead



πŸ“–Meaning
Show respect to people who have died by not saying anything bad about them. Since dead people can no longer hurt us, or defend themselves, it is better to forget their bad actions and remember only their good ones.

✍Note
speak ill of (verb): criticize; speak badly about | the dead (noun): people who have died

🌟Origin
This proverb has been traced back to Chilon of Sparta (6th century BC). The Latin version was "De mortuis nil nisi bonum" ("Of the dead say nothing but good").
