从前,有一只名叫小皮的驴子,他为一位农夫干活。
虽然他的工作非常辛苦,但他吃得很少。
小皮不开心,所以他决定去找宙斯,希望宙斯能帮他换一个主人。
宙斯答应了小皮的请求,将他卖给了一个陶工。
在陶工那里,小皮的工作更重了,他需要搬运沉重的粘土和陶器。
小皮觉得这比以前的工作更累,于是他又去找宙斯,希望再换一个主人。
宙斯又一次满足了小皮的要求,将他卖给了一个皮匠。
当小皮看到皮匠的工作后,他后悔极了。
他说:“我真不幸!早知道我就留在以前的那些主人那里了!现在连我的皮都得交给这个主人了。”
这个故事告诉我们,有时候我们可能会抱怨自己的生活不好,但其实别人的生活也有不如意的地方。
我们应该珍惜我们现在拥有的一切,而不是总是想要更多。
Once upon a time, there was a donkey named Paddy. He worked for a farmer.
Although his work was very hard, he ate very little.
Paddy was unhappy, so he decided to go find Zeus, hoping that Zeus could help him get a new owner.
Zeus agreed to Paddy's request and sold him to a potter.
At the potter's, Paddy's work became even heavier. He had to carry heavy clay and pottery.
Paddy felt this was more tiring than his previous work, so he went back to Zeus, hoping for another change of owner.
Zeus once again fulfilled Paddy's request and sold him to a leatherworker.
When Paddy saw the leatherworker's work, he regretted it immensely.
He said, 'I am so unlucky! If I had known, I would have stayed with my previous owners. Now even my skin will be given to this owner.'
This story tells us that sometimes we may complain about our lives being bad, but in fact, others' lives also have their difficulties.
We should cherish everything we have now, rather than always wanting more.
