The and the ass ¡¡¡¡A and an ass were traveling together. The was prancing along in its beautiful trappings, but the ass was carrying the heavy weight in its saddlebags. ¡¡¡¡"I wish I were you," sighed the ass. "You have nothing to do, and wear such a beautiful harness." ¡¡¡¡The next day there was a great battle. The was badly wounded in the final charge. ¡¡¡¡The ass passed and saw the dying . "I was wrong," said the ass."Safety is much more important than beautiful clothes." |

I believe in safety first! Yes, having beautiful things is nice, but you can't take it with you when you die. So I guess that makes me an ass? hahaha -- but a reliable ass!

hm, that is an interesting way to look at it. But the story gives me a different meaning. The ass, secure in it's safety, will never lose but will never gain. Always the same. Secure. The horse, free to roam, can gain big and be rewarded greatly, but also has the chance to lose big. This to me is the saying "Give me liberty, or give me death"
