The Missing Goat🐑

The Missing Goat 1. Two school-going friends had a crazy idea. They rounded up threegoats from the neighborhood and painted the number 1, 2 and 4 on their sides. That night they let the goats loose inside their school building. 2. The next morning, when the authorities entered the school, they could smell something was wrong. They soon saw goat droppings on the stairs and near the entrance and realized that some goats had entered the building. 3. A search was immediately launched and very soon, the three goats were found. But the authorities were worried, where was goat No. 3? They spent the rest of the day looking for goat No.3. 4. Gradually there was panic and frustration. The school declared classes off for the students for therest of the day. The teachers, helpers, guards, canteen staff, boys were all busy looking for the goat No. 3, which, of course, was never found. Simply because it didnot exist. 5. Those among us, who in spite of having a good life are always feeling a “lack of fulfillment”, are actually looking for the elusive, missing, non-existent goat No.3. 6. Whatever the area of complaint or search or dissatisfaction may be - relationship, job-satisfaction, materialistic achievement… An absence of something is always larger than the presence of many other things. Stop worrying about goat No.3.  失踪的山羊 两个上学的朋友有一个疯狂的想法。他们从附近找来三只山羊，在它们的侧面画上数字1、2和4。那天晚上，他们把山羊放进了他们的教学楼。 第二天早上，当领导进入学校时，他们闻到了不对劲的味道。他们很快就在楼梯上和入口附近看到了山羊的粪便，并意识到一些山羊进入了大楼。 随即展开搜索，很快，三只山羊被找到了。但领导很担心，3号山羊在哪里？他们花了一天的时间来寻找3号山羊。 渐渐地，人们感到恐慌和沮丧。学校宣布学生在当天剩下的时间里停课。老师、助手、警卫、食堂工作人员、男生都在忙着寻找3号山羊，当然，这只山羊从未被找到。只因它不存在。 我们中有些人，尽管拥有美好的生活，但总是感到“缺乏满足感”，实际上是在寻找难以找见的、失踪的、不存在的3号山羊。 无论抱怨、寻找或不满意的地方是什么——关系、工作满意度、物质成就......缺少的东西总是比其他许多东西的存在要大。不要再忧虑3号山羊了。
