The Lion, The Donkey, and the Fox

No, this is not the next book in the Chronicles of Narnia. However, as the story goes, these three characters were doing some rabbit hunting. After a very successful day, the lion asked the donkey if he would divide up the spoils among the three great hunters.

The donkey did his best to evenly divide things and proudly showed the lion the three piles of dead rabbits. The lion summarily killed the donkey, and threw his carcass onto one of the piles.

The lion then called the fox over and asked him if he would be so kind as to divide up the days kill. After a while the fox invited the lion over to examine his work. Here was a giant pile of rabbits with the donkey on top. The fox had one scraggly rabbit for himself.

Seeing this, the lion asked how he had become so good at counting. The fox replied: "I learned my skills from the donkey."

This little story is an object lesson in the importance of learning from those who have actually had experience.
