Example 1
One day a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox, who was a conceited creature,
boasted how clever she was.
'Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our mutual enemies, the dogs,' she
said. 'I know only one trick to get away from dogs,' said the cat. 'You should teach me some of
yours!‘ 'Well, maybe some day, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler
ones,' replied the fox.
Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance. The barking grew louder
and louder - the dogs were coming in their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree
and climbed into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. 'This is the trick I told you about,
the only one I know,' said the cat. 'Which one of your hundred tricks are you going to use?'
The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she should use. Before she could make
up her mind, the dogs arrived. They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.
Orientation
Complication
Resolution
Example 2
One hot day, an ant was seeking for some water. After walking around for a moment, she
came to a spring. To reach the spring, she had to climb up a blade of grass. While making her
way up, she slipped and fell unintentionally into the water.
She could have sunk if a dove up a nearby tree had not seen her. Seeing that the ant was in
trouble, the dove quickly put off a leaf from a tree and dropped it immediately into the
water near the struggling ant. Then the ant moved towards the leaf and climbed up there.
Soon it carried her safely to dry ground.
Not long after at that, there was a hunter nearby who was throwing out his net towards the
dove, hoping to trap it in this way.
Then, the ant quickly bit him on the heel. Feeling the pain, the hunter dropped his net and
the dove flew away quickly from this net.

To read without reflecting is like
eating without digesting
