Meet My Most Loved Animal
In the whole animal kingdom, there is one that always keeps me in awe . It is not the biggest of all the animals, it didn't fall from the sky, it doesn't have all the skills , it is not the the cutest of all animals, it is not even the strongest of all animals by default yet it is the king and considered the strongest.
The lion has been one animal that has so much captured my heart in the entire animal kingdom. Every single part of it's lifestyle is a solid message to the wise. I don't really know much about lions but one thing I do know is that lions were not born with two heads and by body size they are not even the biggest animals yet the are the most deadly and most feared animals.
I understood that lions have little abilities and skills compared to other animals yet they build and develop those little and frail skills so much that they become a weapon of survival for them among the animals. Do you know that lion is not the fastest animal in terms of speed? Yet it feeds even on some animals that can run faster than it does, lions understand many secrets in the jungle that other animals do not, they knew how to take hold of opportunities. They don't mind going In group just to hunt one animal to satisfy their hungry bellies.
I heard someone saying, that the military tactics that made the soldiers to be scared is a direct example of the hunt life of the Lions, they don't believe in greed, grabbing all the opportunity for yourself alone , no! They watch each others back, the soldiers are not strong because of their uniforms, no! No soldier is strong when he stands alone but call his colleagues and you will see wonders, that is another mystery with the Lions.
Honestly if I were to choose to become any animal, I would choose to become a lion for many reasons which I may not be able to exhaust.
The first reason is strength, lion is known to be the strongest animal in the jungle. With that kind of strength, I don't need to go about begging for food. The only thing I would need to do probably, is just move around and hunt on the preys. No one will oppress me and at the same time, I will have the power to defend the poor and the less privilege.
Secondly lions are fearless, I can't imagine living a life fearing no one except my maker. I don't have to bother about anything, I can only feed on others anyone who tries to feed one me should be prepared for a fight. With a fearless mind, I can't imagine how I am going to change a lot in my government. I don't care what anyone will say, anyone who threatens me will be in trouble. I would be privileged to dare all those opportunities that passed me by because I was scared. I could go anywhere anyday , any hour, any time.
The lion has a lot of courage, daring even animals that are ten times bigger than itself and yet still conquer them. You know I am some timid in nature. Imagine bring as bold as a lion. Imagine I be bold not because I am sure that I can make but I just believe that I can make it and in case I don't make, I believe that there is honor in trying and failing than not trying all.
Thirdly I love how United the Lions are, just like wolves they often move in groups watching each others back.
Fourthly I love the Lions class, they don't eat left overs. They don't like been provided for, they prefer hunting theirselves and leaving the rest for others to eat. The lion could be deadly and dangerous yet it is very generous. it doesn't kill for itself alone. no matter how hungry it is. Whatever it eats it remains for other animals too. Imagine being the reason why others smile by sharing with them whatever you have? Isn't that amazing?
Well I think this is all I can talk about the Lions, see you around in the next contest.
