Don’t Be A Sheep/گوسفندنباشیم


253rd story

Sheep don’t clamor like tigers.

They don’t bray like donkeys.

They don’t roar like lions.

They don’t run like rabbits.

They don’t swim like fish, and they don’t gallop like horses.

Sheep stay together in herds. A dog keeps them safe from getting lost. It also protects them from wolves.

Dogs are faithful to them until they send the sheep to be butchered. So the dogs aren’t loyal to the sheep, they are allegiance to the owner.

As a result, democracy doesn’t work for sheep. The only options they would have are the dog which seems constant, the butcher, and the wolf.

Please, don’t be a sheep.

  1. The irony of a sheep’s journey. Filled with so few choices.
