The Two Wise Goats

                



              "The Two Wise Goats" is a fable that teaches the importance of compromise and the value of wisdom in resolving conflicts. Here is how the story typically goes:

              Once upon a time, there were two goats who approached a narrow bridge from opposite sides. The bridge was so narrow that there was room for only one goat to cross at a time. Neither goat was willing to wait for the other to cross first. In situations like these, a conflict would often lead to a fight, risking both goats falling into the river below, which would be dangerous for both.

             However, these goats were wise. Instead of fighting to decide who would cross first, risking their safety, they came up with a peaceful solution. One goat lay down on the bridge, and the other goat carefully stepped over the one lying down. This way, both goats were able to cross the bridge safely, one after the other.

            The moral of the story is that sometimes, yielding or finding a creative solution to a problem can be more beneficial than insisting on one's own way. It teaches the value of wisdom, patience, and the importance of looking for peaceful resolutions to conflicts instead of resorting to confrontation.
