40. Think about a turkey

A turkey is born at a farm. He is hand raised by the farmer, played with by the kids and given all the food he can eat. The family dog protects him from coyotes that come sniffing around looking for a meal.

The turkey must think he has it made. Food, protection, love, and he should think this will go one forever.

Then he wakes up the day before Thankgiving to see the farmer walking to his pen with an ax.

(Moral of the story - just because things have worked out in the past does not mean they always will)

(I stole this story from a book I'm reading)
