The Dog and the Bone

A dog was walking, in his mouth is a bone
Was crossing a river on his way home
Saw a dog with a bone and wanted it too
So opened his mouth was his first thought to do
Little did he realise it was his reflection he saw
The bone fell into the river now he had nothing at all.

'Too much greed results in nothing'

Everyone has been greedy once in their lifetime. We always want more than we can have. However in our pursuit for more, we often forget the things we already have. If we lose that then we're left with nothing. There is nothing wrong with wanting more but don't take the things you have for granted. Cherish what you have before you lose it.
