Got this one done on my livestream this afternoon: The Piglet, the Sheep, and the Goat.
In essence, the fable goes like this: A pig, a sheep, and a goat live together in a pen on a farm. The pig squeals every time the farmer sticks his hand in the pen. One day the sheep and the goat ask why the pig screams to much. “He handles us all the time and we aren’t hurt.”
The pig replies, “But for you, Mr. Sheep, the farmer only wants your wool. And for you, Mrs. Goat, he wants your milk. But there is only one thing he wants from me, and it will be my end.”
The moral being that perspective matters. That we can’t dismiss danger to others simply because we don’t experience it ourselves. That our lived experiences are not equal.
And I think that’s really really important in today’s society. We are experiencing what it’s like to forget that simple truth.
