I Am The Tiger

One day in the middle of a forest, a tiger died after giving birth to her baby. Not long after that, a crowd of sheep passed by. The sheep's mother stopped by and looked at the helpless tiger baby. Having looked at the poor condition, the inner heart of the sheep called to protect him. Then she approached the newborn tiger and hugged it. Feeling the warmth and protection given by the sheep, the little tiger folowed wherever she went.
In the next days, the little iger lived together with all the sheep. Every single day he was breast fed by the sheep mother, played with the other sheep, ate and drank like a sheep. Even the little tiger spoke like a sheep and he felt he was part of the sheep. Even the little tiger spoke like a sheep and he felt he was part of the sheep.
One day somewhere, unexpectedly this crowd of sheep suddenly into small groups running around. What was going on? Apparently, they were scared and felt threatened since there was a big starving tiger was running into their direction. Each and every single sheep was trying to save himself, including this little tiger. seeing that there was one small tiger among the group, the hunting tiger was astonished. The big tiger roared loudly and shouted to the little tiger, " hey, you little tiger... stop running... why are you running?Don't run! Stop!
And yet this little tiger disobeyed the instruction and keep on running away following the rest of the group. The big hunting tiger ran towards the little tiger and finally successfully caught him. "Why are you running with them? You are not a sheep! You are a tiger... just like me!" said the big tiger. "No, way, I am not a tiger ... I am just a lamb... just like them...!" The little tiger shouted and shrank himself to escape. He was struggling hard to free from his grip.
The hunting tiger just could not believe what he just heard. The little tiger seemed to have a little acepting who he really was. And to prove his words he brought the little tiger into a clear pond, forced him to look into the water. Soon as he saw his reflection he was really stunned. "Wow, I am a tiger..., I am a iger..., I am not a sheep...!" he whispered to himself.
Soon after he realized. He turned his head around and looked at the hunting tiger roaring loud pronouncing his satisfaction and victory. The little tiger as then started to imitate and pride he roared endlessly...pronouncing, " I am a tiger... I am not a sheep, I am the king of jungle...!!!"
