Aesop’s Fable

By stormschool

Once upon a time a Frog came forth from his home in the marshes and
proclaimed to all the world that he was a learned physician, skilled in
drugs and able to cure all diseases.

Among the crowd was a Fox,
who called out, "You, a doctor! Why, how can you set up to heal others
when you cannot even cure your own lame legs and blotched and wrinkled
skin?"

Moral of the story:  Physician, heal thyself.


I got this story from
Aesop’s Fables Friday. I agree with her that the moral of the story
shouldn’t be heal thyself. Frogs are built that way for a reason and the
fox shouldn’t be so rude and he should realize that every animal is different… and with good reason.

    Well thank you so much for linking. I am glad to see that you agree with me on this – I have been trying to figure it. The issue has caused quite a heated debate in my family.
