The Horse and the Stag

A Horse and a Stag fought over a field.

The Horse asked a man to help defeat the Stag. The man agreed, but first put a bridle on the Horse and rode him into battle.

They defeated the Stag—but the man didn’t take off the bridle afterward. The Horse became a servant forever.

Moral: Don’t sacrifice your freedom to take revenge—you may never get it back.
