Taking the bad with the good
It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold weather.
The porcupines(豪猪) faced the problem as well. But these clever porcupines had an idea. They decided to huddle(蜷缩) together to stay warm. It seemed like a good idea to make it through the cold winter. But there was a problem—their pointy
quills(尖尖的刺) started hurting their closest friends! After some time, the porcupines couldn’t stand it any longer. They decided to leave some room around themselves. However, as they moved away from each other, the cold air came in, and some of them started to get ill and die.
Now they faced a difficult choice—either put up with the quills or face death. After careful thinking, the porcupines decided to go back to huddling together. They found out that living with pain(疼痛) from their close friends was a small price to pay for the warmth of being together.
And so, the porcupines learned an important lesson: Sometimes, a little discomfort(不适) in relationships(关系) is not a big problem if it means staying warm and living through the cold. From that day on, they happily stuck together, quills and all, living a warm and long life.
