A Young Girl lived on a farm with her parents. She loved to
play with the farm animals.
One day, while she was playing with the Hens and their
Chicks, a Hen pecked her finger and bit it.
“Oh, Papa!” the Young Girl ran to her father, crying and
holding out her hand.
The Young Girl’s father asked her, “My bonny little girl!
What happened?”
The Young Girl said, “Oh Papa! The Hen hurt me! I am so kind
to them, yet one of them bites my fingers every time I go to play with them.
They are not nice!”
The Young Girl’s father took her small hand in his own large
one. “The poor Hens think you have come to harm them or their little children.
So they are scared of you and bite in fear. You should he careful. First play
with them from a distance.
When you become friends, then they will never bite you” .
Her father continued, “My dear girl. You should try to
understand and respect each creature. Even if they are not like us, they also have
feelings and fears!”
First
understand people or animals and then get close to them.
