A man and a Lion were companions on a journey, and in the course of conversation they
began to boast about their prowess, and each claimed to be superior to the other in
strength and courage. They were still arguing when they came to a cross-road where
there was a statue of a man strangling a Lion.
“ There ! ” said the Man triumphantly, “ look at that ! Doesn’t that prove to you that we
are stronger than you? ”
“ Not so fast, my friend,” said the Lion “ that is only your view of the case. If we Lions
could make statues, you may be sure that in all of them you would see the Man
underneath.”
Moral of the story: There are two sides to every question.
Get both sides of a story before making a decision and find the real truth. It is always
worth listening to or trying to understand both opposing perspectives of a given story. Life consists of two sides-light and dark, joy and sorrow like how every piece of paper,
thin and has two sides. There is nothing that exists that has only one side.
