The Lion Cub

HEY GUYS JUST WANNA SHARE A STORY.

There was once this lion cub who got lost in the African plains. His mum had gone hunting and didn’t come back and he started to roam around.
He was weak and hungry.

Luckily for him while he was roaming alone looking for his mom, there was this mother goat who pitied him and and took care of him.
So the lion cub started to feed from the mother goat and started to love his other goat siblings just as he loved his lost real siblings.
As time went on, he started to take their habits.

And as his goat siblings started to grow , they started to grow horns. As much as his siblings loved him, they started to bully him.
They loved to charge at him with their horns. He had no complains though, he felt he was happy.

He ate grass. He grazed the plains together. He liked his life so he didn’t mind one bit that he was being bullied.

A few years later, while out in his goat herd, he heard all the other goats shouting to run and run he did . There was a big lion chasing them. He tried as he might but the big lion managed to pounced on him and pin him down.

The big lion then asked him why he was running away.

He told the big lion that he didn’t want to get eaten by the big lion.

Amused but shocked, the big lion told him to follow him to the river. Upon reaching the river, the big lion asked him to see his reflection from the river.

"Do we look the same?" he asked.

The lion cub realised then he looked exactly like the big lion.

"I ve seen you being charged at with horns by the goats. Why do you let them do that?" asked the big lion.

" What can I do? I don’t have horns!" answered the lion cub.

"We have more than what they have! We have our lion's roar! We have our claws!" exclaimed the big lion.

So the big lion sent the lion cub home and told him to start standing up for himself.



When he reached home, the goats welcomed him and tried to start bullying him again.
This time though, he remembered what the big lion said and gave a big lion's roar......

What i wanna say is forget the tiong bahru game or the decisions that go against us. Don't think about gambas. We have one last league game before the league season ends. Let's end on a good note. And let's put in our best in the FA CUP games.

Jollilads Arsenal FC is just like the lion cub. We are playing in NFL. We are living in this ruthless game that wouldn't bother about us. We live by their standards. We conform to their expectations. What we try to achieve and aspire is dictated by the terms that they set. So let's make ourselves strong, not because we wanna fight them. But because it's a way of life.
OUR WAY OF LIFE.
