童話:壁とネズミ

“The Wall and the Mouse”, also known as “The Mouse’s Wedding”:

Once upon a time, there was a couple of mice. They had a beautiful daughter, and they were looking for a suitable marriage partner for her. The couple visited various places. First, they thought the sun was the strongest, so they asked the sun to marry their daughter. However, the sun said that the cloud was stronger than him and introduced the cloud.

Next, they asked the cloud, but the cloud said that the wind was stronger than him and introduced the wind. Even when they asked the wind, the wind said that the wall was stronger than him and introduced the wall.
Finally, when they asked the wall, the wall said that the mouse was stronger than him. This is because mice can make holes and pass through walls.

Hearing this, the couple of mice understood that they, the mice, were the strongest in the world, and decided to look for a marriage partner for their daughter from among the mice.
And so, the daughter married a mouse groom and lived happily ever after.

Now, the couple of mice realized that we, who thought we were the weakest, were actually the strongest. This is the lesson of the wall and the mouse."

壁とネズミ、what we learn from this is that we the weakest people are the most valuable.  real 民主主義 is here, don't you think?
