“209th” Story
First published; Mar.09.2023
Once upon a time,
A donkey became the king of the jungle.
The donkey made new rules for every creature of his kingdom. His new rules focused on number six.
For example; All the animals had to go to sleep at six in the evening and start their day at six in the morning.
The birds were allowed to eat only six times a day, but they used to eat whenever they found something, which could have been a hundred times a day.
If any of the animals wanted to be together as a group, it could be only six of them, also their gatherings couldn’t be longer than six minutes.
The donkey set many rules all in “six” limitations.
And if anyone disobeyed these rules of the “six”, they had to pay the consequences.
One day the rooster cocked at five in the morning and was ordered to be executed, so others will learn their lesson and never disrespect the donkey’s rules.
The donkey brayed for the animals that if anyone disobeys the power of “six”, we will show no mercy.
Other animals were so afraid of the donkey.
They obeyed the rules and continued living with fear and slavery.
Years passed and the donkey got very sick and was about to die.
The lion went to visit the sick donkey and said: “I always wanted to know why did you have that rule of “six” for everything? And why did you take it so hard on others just to obey?”
The donkey said: “I wasn’t powerful like a lion. I made a stupid, nonsense rule to stay in power. When you set crazy rules it scares others more and brings their focus and attention to that rule. And they were stupid enough to follow! It worked and put me in power for years.”
