Confidence is in me

 


Confidence is in me

 

When Agudengba was traveling in India, he met an old acquaintance, Old Donkey, who told him many Indian myths, including the story of Shiva's conquests in all directions, killing countless demons, and destroying the three cities of Asura. .

After Agudumba said goodbye to the old donkey, the crow Betty suddenly flew to his side.

The chattering crow Betty also told Agudengba these myths. Agudemba had already heard about them, so he was not interested in the stories told by crow Betty.

Agudemba said to Crow Betty: I know all the stories you told. Can you tell me some stories that I don’t know?

Crow Betty said: Mr. Agudemba, you may have forgotten me. In fact, we are also old acquaintances! Do you remember the old man and his animal farm? At that time, in order to retaliate against human beings for destroying the mountain forest environmental resources, the wild boar Wang Deborah gathered all the wild boars and formulated a "special action plan". The wild boar directly launched an attack on the personnel of the animal breeding farm.

When the human-pig war was about to break out, I said to Pig King Deb: The mountain man’s son likes hunting. He has many bows, arrows, and shotguns. You must first destroy their hunting weapons. Without these hunting weapons, you will be invincible. I knew where they kept their hunting weapons, in the cabin next to their living quarters.

Wild Boar Wang Deb took my advice. When the wild boars launched an official attack on the personnel at the animal farm, they first rushed into the cabin where hunting weapons were stored, and smashed all the hunting weapons with their strong bodies. When Shan Weng's son Shang Wu and the staff from the animal farm came to pick up the hunting weapons, it was already too late. The wild boar king Deb and his friends used their ferocious tusks to charge into the bare-handed breeding farm personnel.

Crow Betty smiled at Agudemba and said: At that time, I picked up a burning firewood from the kitchen with my mouth and threw it towards the cabin. Fire burned the cabin. The wild boar Wang Deb and his companions broke down the fence doors of all the livestock sheds. Cattle, horses, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock and poultry escaped one after another and went to the mountains and forests. There were also many domestic pigs in this fleeing army. The mountain man and his son Shang Wu were so frightened that they fled.

Agudemba remembered it, and he knew it was true.

Agudemba said to Crow Betty: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Crow Betty said: I am good friends with the wild boar king Deb. The wild boar king Deb has occupied this area, and many domestic pigs have also escaped here. There are also livestock and poultry such as cattle, horses, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese that have escaped one after another, and they have also become the owners of this land.

Crow Betty said to Agudemba: "Human beings are not terrible. Human beings often ignore the intelligence and talents of animals. In fact, nature provides all animals with the ability to survive and a sense of freedom. Human beings may have very high minds, However, they are just advanced animals. Intelligent animals, like humans, also have emotions and memories, strategies and expectations. But no animal in the world prays for God's blessings, let alone creates those weird myths. Deceiving yourself.”

What Betty the crow said stunned the extremely smart Agudenba.

The crow Betty fluttered its wings and suddenly flew into the sky, flying around three times in the air. When he landed on the back of the donkey Ma Hu, the crow Betty said to Agudemba: "Look, those cows, horses, sheep, chickens and ducks The geese are here. As long as you have charisma, you can have countless friends."

The cows, horses, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese all came to Crow Betty.

Betty the Crow flapped her wings again, and he suddenly became the conductor of the chorus of beasts.

Under the lead singing of crow Betty, those former livestock and poultry danced the cheerful song and dance of "Confidence Is in Me":

 

Those who save themselves do not rely on heaven for salvation;

Those who help themselves do not expect God’s help;

Those who abandon themselves will always be abandoned by God.

 

Narcissists like to say: I am beautiful

People with low self-esteem often say: I am incompetent

People with self-respect can easily say: I am super strong

The confident person says: I am awake

 

Narcissists are always overconfident

Think yourself perfect and flawless

Blindly seeking attention

Use embellishments to cover up the inner emptiness

 

People with low self-esteem always have negative feelings

Use your own survival weaknesses frequently

Compare with tall, rich and beautiful people

When encountering difficulties, you frown even more

 

Self-respecting people are always domineering

See yourself as invincible

Being arbitrary and making bad decisions

Being arrogant brings disaster to the country and the people

 

Those who are confident see through the world of mortals

Don’t chase the wind and rain for fame and fortune

Do not worship gods, monsters, prophets or saints

Confidence lies in me, I can’t help but heaven and earth

 

Don’t walk on thin ice when encountering setbacks

Be the king of your own life

Feel free to do it as long as you are confident

can do anything you want

  1. Taking the legendary wise Agu Demba as the protagonist, I started to create the Chinese-English version of "Snow Land Fable" using the traditional fable creation method that combines poetry and prose. Writing fables makes me feel like a child again. Studying snowy culture is my prescription to prevent Alzheimer’s disease.
