Once there was a musty, shaggy, and very heavy bear. And a very sneaky, sly, and quick red fox. They lived in the same den. The rather large bear slept on the right. The smaller fox slept on the left. The fox wanted to be big like the bear, so he could fish. One day a blizzard struck. The lake froze over. Because the bear could not fish through the ice, he starved. The fox was nice and full from the things he could get from under the snow. And he was grateful that god made him slight. 
We need to be thankful for what we have.
