Once while the lioness was walking around in the jungle, a thorn once pierced the paw of one of the lioness as she was circling the bush. The lioness made the proud decision to forgo seeking assistance. She wandered the jungle while bleeding and becoming weaker.

One day she came across a lowly mouse. The lioness was suffering greatly. Despite being really afraid, the mouse had the guts to give assistance. He pulled the thorn out of the lioness’ paw. Finally the lioness got relief from the pain and realised that she should have sought assistance much earlier
