The Goose and the golden egg

A certain man had the good fortune to possess a goose that laid a golden egg every day.

But dissatisfied with so slow an income, and thinking to seize the whole treasure at once, he killed the goose...

Upon cutting her open, found her -- just what any other goose would be....

The Goose with the Golden Eggs, by Aesop

Sort:  

I love this fable. Greed is terrible. One gold egg a day should have been enough for living a comfortable life. His greed killed his wealth.

You know it 😊

I think in Germany everybody knows this fable. But only a few people learn from it ✌️

Its a bit like steemit, look after the Goose well and every day we get golden eggs layed for us all ❤

This is such an important message wrapped in an impressive tale! I hope a lot of greedy people will learn the lesson, just like the man did when cutting the goose.
Beautiful gemstones, by the way! :)
I also have some and I like to feel them as everyone feels different in the hands :)
Good wishes to you :)
