The next really short fairy tale that I read for the very first time is entitled 'The Old Man and His Grandson'. This story is a story of love and respect for your elders. The child of sees how his parents treat his grandfather and shows them in another way that they should respect and love him still. This little boy does come up with a very interesting and poignant way to show his parents their wrongdoing in caring for their parent, his grandfather. This is also a story of how children can teach adults to be better in showing respect. We should all love each other no matter how old we are and become. Again, please share your thoughts on this and the others, and by the way there are still more of these I plan on sharing. Thank you.

Grimm's Fairy Tales #8
Here is another Grimm's Fairy Tale entitled 'The Death of the Little Hen'. This is the story that could be about being greedy for the little hen did not want to share a nut with a friend. The friend did try help by trying to fetch some water, but when he went to ask everyone wanted something. The friend was too late to save the little hen, and she died. The friend cried for his friend so loudly that other animals came, and they built a carriage and helped him take the little hen to be buried. They came to a stream and to figure a way to cross. They all tried to help but in the end the friend was alone to bury the little hen and cried till he died. This could be a lesson on learning about death and coping and how one copes with a death of a friend. It did seem that the other animals wanted to help, but could their real reason be for helping the friend. Please share your thoughts and it will be greatly appreciated.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
