Don't Know What You've Got Til It's Gone
One day, two frogs leaped onto a lily pad at the exact same moment. The girl frog fell instantly in love and the boy frog thought she was very nice. They talked and talked and seemed to be very happy. A large fish swam by and the lily pad broke lose and rapidly floated down the river. The frogs clung to the lily pad and to each other.
Time passed and the frogs continued to float down the river on the lily pad eating flies and living life. Sometimes they went through rapids and sometimes the water was calm but neither frog jumped off. By this time the lily pad was their home. The boy frog thought about heading off to find ‘greener' lily pads with other girl frogs, but he didn't. He stayed on the lily pad and the two frogs continued floating down the river together.
Years later, the boy frog looked at the girl frog and she didn’t look well. She wasn’t talking much and stayed asleep most of the day. When the girl frog no longer moved despite his efforts to wake her, the boy frog realized that he hadn’t just liked the girl frog but he had, in fact, loved her.
