The Monkey and the Fish
Animals in the wild simply live their life from their instincts that have been developed as adaptations to their environment. People are a product of their environment and experience society, culture, and all that. As tempting or easy as it may be to try to interpret everyone in our own image, we should recall that there is an important upshot to this monkey-and-fish fable: projecting our values and needs onto others without much real attempt to understand what they need, and in the context of which they need it can do damage, often well beyond our reckoning.

"A Mother's Embrace". AI-Generated.
The first time Aarav remembered his mother’s embrace, he was four years old, trembling from a nightmare. The house was silent except for the ticking clock and his muffled sobs. He had dreamt of monsters, of falling, of being left behind. She came, gently wrapping her arms around him, humming a tune he would later recognize as a lullaby from her childhood. He didn’t understand the words, but the warmth and calm they carried never left him.
