Reading notes: Tibetan Part 2

There were several Folk tales I read for today. A lot of them ended with someone dying. If the person was in the wrong they were the one who would be grieving. The one that stood out to me was "How the Rabbit Killed the Lion". This did not give a good lesson. From reading this I only learned it is ok to lie and trick people if it is in your favor. This is not what it should be about. If I was going to do this as an assignment then I would change the ending. In the way of the rabbit is in the wrong and he would get what he deserves. The other one that stood out to me was "How the Raven Saved the Hunter". Sadly in the end the raven dies because the hunter was foolish not to listen to what the raven was trying to warn him. I may do a retelling of this story. I may have the raven live in the end or change the roles of who dies. But I really enjoyed reading Tibetan Folk Tales this week.
