"Aesop's Fables" --week14


Hello, everyone!

Happy winter vacation has been over. It means the week of exam is just around the corner. It’s unbelievable that I must study for these exams.

In this week, I read some stories in “Aesop’s Fables”. And I found an interesting story the title is “The Maid and The Pail of Milk”. The main character was the maid. She was carrying the pail of milk and daydreaming. She wanted to get much money and buy new dress. She imaged about the color of the dress. It is interesting, because, she has not carried the pail of milk. Finally, she dropped the pail of milk and her dream vanished. A lesson of this story is “It is never wise to count your chickens before they hatch.” There is a proverb that is same meaning in Japan. However, I can’t hate the country maid, because it is hard to hate her. And I’ll pay attention when I may get the happiness. She is so cute, but I don’t want to be her.  Thank you for reading my article! :)

Have a nice weekend!!!
