A Fox Who Has Never Seen a Lion

(Aesop’s Fables)

Translation　ちいさな翻訳屋さん

Japanese ・ English ・ Chinese

Japanese & English ・Japanese & Chinese

　There was a fox who had never seen a lion in his whole life.



　One day, the fox ran into a lion.

“…..!!”

　As this was the first time that the fox saw a lion, he was horrified to death.



　The second time the fox saw a lion,

　he was still scared but not as much as the first time.

　The third time the fox saw a lion,

　he was as comfortable as going close and talking to the lion.

　This story tells us that

　even the scariest thing becomes not scary once you are used to it.

　If you try doing what you are reluctant to do, you may find it not as bad as you think.
