Dr Wayne Dyer ~ Living In The Present Moment
A city mouse visits a friend in the country, and scoffs at the humble rural lifestyle, particularly the limited food choices.
An image from a 1922 edition of “The Fables of Aesop.”
Country mouse accepts an invitation to experience a better life and scurries to the big city. Sure enough, country mouse discovers an abundance of amenities and excitements, and rich culinary options in the alleyways. But the unfamiliar dangers (mousetraps and lurking alley cats, for instance) are just too stressful.
Whereupon country mouse hurries back to the farm fields, leaving us with the moral that a simpler life can also be a more peaceful life — or that mice from different places like different things, and that’s just as it should be.
