There is a story they tell of two dogs. Both at separate times walk into the same room. One comes out wagging his tail while the other comes out growling. A woman watching this goes into the room to see what could possibly make one dog so happy and the other so mad. To her surprise she finds the room filled with mirrors.

The other was older and wiser. “How miserable is our situation!” cried the Unhappy Lizard. “No one notices us. We are small and have such dull lives. Look at the other bigger animals. They are so royal and majestic!” The Unhappy Lizard sighed, “I wish I was born a deer. To be quick and have great, big horns! And live proudly in the royal forest.” At that very moment, a pack of dogs ran past, chasing a deer. The deer was tired and the hungry dogs pounced on it. The Lizards watched in horror. The Wise Lizard said to his complaining friend, “You wanted to be in place of this poor deer!” “You should learn from what you just saw. You are not beautifully coloured or quick on your feet. But, you are alive! Destiny is kind to you. You are small and safe from danger, unlike the bigger animals!” Be Happy With What You ...
