Once created, the sheep found to be the weakest of the animals. He lived with the constant heartbeat of being attacked by other animals, all stronger and more aggressive. He did not know what to do to defend themselves.
returned by the Creator, and told him his suffering.
"You want something to defend yourself?", Asked the Lord graciously.
"Yes."
"How about a pair of sharp fangs?".
The sheep shook his head: "How would I graze the grass more tender? Also I would look like a bully."
"Do you want the powerful talons?".
"Oh no! I would want to use them inappropriately. "
" You could inject poison in the saliva, "he continued patiently for the Lord.
" No way either. I would be hated and chased by all as a snake. "
" Two robust horns, what do you say? ".
" Oh no! And who stroked my more? ".
" But you need to defend yourself for something to hurt those who attack you ...".
"to hurt someone? No, I just can not. Rather than rest as is. "
We are in a sense, as even small animals without fur or fangs to defend ourselves. What protects us is the evil but humanity: the ability to love others and accept the love that others want to offer us.
It is not our hard to give us the warm night, but the tenderness that makes you want others to keep warm. The real strength of man is his tenderness.
