2-Card Monte played with his dog switching around two cups with treats. Dog selects cup on his left side and is fed the one candy inside. Cup not chosen has a dozen treats and dog appears somewhat disgusted, so he spits out the one treat offered. Many finds this video funny— Why? The dog's reaction is similar to human behavior as most want something "Bigger and Better" like the story in Grimm's Fairy Tale The Fisherman and His Wife— After catching a fish that was a prince, the fisherman threw it back into the sea, his wife wants the fish to grant her a wish— a cottage instead of their hovel, husband goes back to the sea and fish says it's done— nice cottage with garden of fruit trees for their pleasure. Wife not satisfied and wants a mansion, then to be a king, then emperor, and pope with palace & servants— all her wishes granted— "Bigger and Better". Then she wants to control the heavens but found herself back in her hovel— Lesson of wanting what we have not and not joyful of what we have got. I'll have what's smaller and content with peace of mind and tranquillity— the path of a sage living a life filled with grace and blessings. — Peter Y. Chou Mountain View, 10-30-2022 |
