A Cat’s Tale

A big cat saw a little cat chasing its tail and asked, “Why are you chasing your tail so?” Said the kitten, “I have learned that the best thing for a cat is happiness, and that happiness is in my tail. Therefore, I am chasing it and when I catch it, I shall have happiness.”

Said the old cat, “My daughter, I too have paid attention to the problems of the universe. I too have judged that happiness is in my tail. But, I have noticed that whenever I chase after it, it keeps running away from me. And when I go about my business, it just seems to come after me wherever I go.”

“APPROVAL SEEKING IS DETRIMENTAL TO HAPPINESS.”
