Lion, Tiger and Donkey- An Argument (Fable)

Story

The donkey and tiger had a dispute over the color of the grass, with the donkey insisting it was blue and the tiger saying it was green. They took the matter to the lion, the King of the Jungle, for arbitration. The donkey pleaded his case, and the lion declared that the grass was indeed blue and punished the tiger with five years of silence. The donkey was pleased and continued to repeat his belief that the grass is blue. The tiger accepted his punishment but asked the lion why he was being punished when he knew the grass was green. The lion explained that the punishment was for wasting time arguing with a donkey and bothering him with such a trivial matter. The moral of the story is not to waste time arguing with those who are stubborn and closed-minded, as it is a futile effort. It is better to maintain one's peace and avoid unnecessary conflicts.
