A dog with a bone in his mouth was walking home happily. When the dog came to a bridge, he stopped and saw his own reflection in the water. Instantaneously, he jumped into the water hoping to get the bone, while the one in his mouth was dropped into the water. Finally , he got nothing and was drenched to its skin. Then, he walked away feeling dejected.
My assumptions were that the dog saw a bigger bone from reflection, and in its mind he wanted it as well. This made him jumped into the water, because he was overwhelmed with greed that surged in him. Moral of this story tells us not to be greedy, because what we have is better than what we do not have.( A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.)
