Long ago, there was a washerman in a village. He had a donkey and a dog. The washerman used to carry all his things on the donkey and bring them to the house. The washerman loved his pet dog very much and kept it only with him. As soon as the washerman came home, the dog ran to him and jumped on his chest with great joy, and the washerman also held the dog and stroked it very much. But the donkey did not like to see all this. Why did the donkey do so much work, but the owner loved the dog so much even though the dog did not work at all? The donkey became very jealous.
One day, the donkey thought that he would show his love to his master like a dog. As soon as the master came home, the donkey lifted his legs like a dog and jumped on his master’s chest. But when the washerman saw this, he thought that the donkey must have gone mad. So the washerman kicked the donkey to death.
Jealousy always harms itself.
