The lion and the bee

This is the story of the lion and the bee

A bee came to a lion.
"Are you like me" asked the bee.
"Do you have a large crowning mane like mine?" asked the lion
"No" said the bee
"Do I have small fluttering wings like yours?" asked the lion
"No" said the bee
"Do you have four strong legs like like mine?" asked the lion
"No" said the bee
"Are you big like me?" asked the lion
"No" said the bee
"Then I must not be like you" concluded the lion.

"But..." said the bee
"Do you smile like me when you're happy" she asked
"Yes I do" said the lion
"And do you talk with others like I do" asked the bee
"Yes I do" said the lion
"And are you happy like me when you eat good food" she continued
"Yes I am" said the lion
"And do you enjoy the sun's rays as I do" asked the bee
"Yes I do" said the lion

"So..." the bee said.
"Maybe you don't look like me, but you are like me" she concluded.

"Martin"
