Bedtime Stories
When I was a child, I read lots of Aesop Fables. They were truths explained in a way I could digest. Today I turned to one of my favorites which is the Dog and the Shadow. In this fable, the dog carried a large piece of meat in his mouth to take home to enjoy. As he crossed over a creek using a plank, he looked down and saw his reflection.
