A long time ago there was a great king. He ordered the building of a beautiful palace that was filled with many wonderful things. Among other curious things in the palace, there was a hall of mirrors, all the walls, the ceiling and even the floor were made of perfect mirrors.
The mirrors were so perfect and clear that visitors didn’t understand that there was a mirror in front of them, so the mirrors would perfectly reflect the objects. Moreover, the walls in this hall were made in a way that they created an extraordinary increased echo.
Once, a dog ran into the hall and froze in surprise in the middle of the hall. A whole pack of dogs surrounded it from all sides. From above and below and surrounded on all sides. Just in case, in a defensive move, the dog bared its’ teeth. All of the dogs responded in the same way. Frightened, the dog frantically barked and in return, the echo returned the bark and increased it many times. The dog barked even harder, and the echo was keeping up. The dog frantically lunged from one side to the other, snapping at the air and the reflections copied his actions perfectly snapping their teeth.
In the morning the guards found the dog on the floor, lifeless, surrounded by a million reflections of lifeless dogs.
There was nobody who would have done any harm to the dog, the dog had died by fighting with his own reflections.
The moral of the story is; the world does not bring good or evil on its own, everything around us is a reflection of our own thoughts, feelings, wishes and actions. The world is a big mirror, strike a good pose… smile from deep within.
Life is beautiful, stay positive
