Once there lived a Lion. It was not like all other lions. He was a little different from other lions. He was very kind hearted and was very helping. He wanted everyone around him happy. Even during hunting for food, he showed sympathy to his preys.
One fine day, he was simply walking through the grass land. Suddenly some wolves started running as they saw him. And he saw a sheep crying, and she was badly wounded. The kind lion went nearby, but the sheep was even more frightened. She lost all the hopes to live and she was preparing herself for dying. But she never knew, it was a kind lion.
He took her under his protection and nursed her with utmost care. The sheep was all surprised t find a kind lion among all other sort of cruel animals. Her lost hopes came back. In fact they got brighter. Just like any other relationships, the admiration turned into Love. A sheep loved a Lion.
The lion understood her feeling towards him. But he knew all the consequences of the relationship.He always tried to avoid her. But one day he came to know that she has got no one, and nowhere to go. So out of compassion, he offered her a life.
Just like any other Leo, he also has all the Leo qualities. He was romantic, warn hearted, enthusiastic,broad minded and generous. She liked all those qualities and he liked her without looking too much into her life. He had some general concepts about a sheep. So they started a good life.The Lion loved her as far as he could and the sheep also loved him back very much. But sheep always wanted him beside her, she always wanted to be with him and to talk endlessly.
But Lion never tried to caress her or kiss her for fear that it would hurt her and leave deep mark on her forever. But she couldn't understand his behavior. She thought that his behavior had changed, and he no longer love her as before.
Similar problems were also running in lion's mind too. Leos by birth are ambitious. They always want more and want to reach higher and higher. He had great many plans in his mind, to be the King of the whole Jungle and to bring some rules to protect other small animals from the cruelty of big animals and so on. But she could never understand him nor his plans. She thought that he was also like any other big cat, he would go searching for prey and hunt it down and would come back to her, to share moments with her. She never bother to understand him and he could never live upto her expectations even though he understood her.
Misunderstanding grew in sheep's mind, while conflicts grew in Lion's mind. He couldn't do his works, her feelings always disturbed him. He always wanted to share his dreams and passions with her. But she always compared him with other normal cat's and so she could never inspire him nor motivate him. She always asked him about hunting and never bothered to ask about his big dreams or any other thing that would have inspire him.
Leo when not motivated, were simply a different animals. They became reserved and at times they are even dogmatic and intolerant. He went into his cave. He used to go to his came when some problems disturbs his mind all the time. And after solving the problem only he came out of the cave. He decided to go to the cave once again. But it was all new to her. She thought he was avoiding her, and he didn't love her anymore.
Inside the cave the lion thought. " She can never understand me nor my dreams and passions. She will never inspire me. And if she can't inspire me , I can't love her with my full heart. Yeah, I'm romantic, kind hearted,generous and all. But I need motivation and I need to be motivated. As long as she can't help me directly or indirectly in achieving my goals, I can't love her back. I am not looking for all day love. Why did'n she understand that??! I need inspiration and appreciation. If I still live with her, I can offer her nothing but sorrow only. Why should I keep such a beautiful and good girl always in sorrow?? If I'm doing so, I will be doing great wrong doing and injustice to such a nice sheep. All my life I will have to live with guilt and gut feeling. I am sure that I can live without her without any problem or what so ever , but what about her? Now She can't think of a life without me! But if she still living with me, I can't offer her a happy life and throughout the life she will be in great sorrow. I will survive because of my busy activities. So its the best thing to break up. That will be fine for both of us. But she can't accept the fact. She will be shocked on hearing this. But its the best thing"
He came out of the cave and went out somewhere. When she saw him going away without telling a word, she concluded that he no longer love her. After some hours later he came back and without any introduction he threatened her that if she lived some more days with him, he would hunt her down and kill her. He told her that he was getting hungry and one day he would kill her. So he told her to run away from his sight. But she told him that she would still be happy if he killed her. And she loved him so much, she added. Lion knew she was saying all these things sincerely, but for happiness in her life he felt she should go and he felt it was necessary . But he insisted her running away and pushed her away and told her angrily that he never loved her and his feeling was compassion and compassion only. And again threatened to go away. And he roared in such a great voice that the whole Jungle trembled. She never saw him so angry and was frightened and in his next push she started to walk down the valley with tears in her eyes. She walked and and walked without knowing what had happened to her true love. She didn't even knew where to go. But when she reached the end of the valley, she was surprised to see a group of sheep waiting for someone.
Back in his cave, sat the lion with broken heart, but with a good feeling of saving one's life.
