To be & not to be 'Simple'

Iroquois: The Girl Who Was Not Satisfied With Simple Things

This story was about a girl named Dahjoh who was not satisfied with simple things. Her parents worked very hard in finding her a husband as she was very picky in choosing a suitable man for her. At last, she decided to marry a young handsome guy not from their village who was actually a serpent disguised in human form. When she knew that her husband was not of the same kind, she escaped with the help of Heno, the Thunderer. The girl returned to her village and finally married a man with a good heart. After that incident, Dahjoh learned to ‘be satisfied with simple things’.

The problem faced by Dahjoh was actually a universal problem happen around the globe. Man has always not easily satisfied with what they have. In fact, most of us only learned to appreciate what we have when we are threatened to lose them. Ironically, being not easily satisfied with simple things is never as wrong as it seems to be as men have always try their best to improve their living when they are not satisfy will their current stage of life. The process of pursuing after perfection has thereafter cultivating good spirits such as ambitious, perseverance, diligence and also building up good confidence level too. In my opinion, Dahjoh might be wrong when she foolishly made her decision solely based on the good outward appearance of her husband but she was not wrong for being picky person and in fact she was rightfully being a picky person. The outward appearance is as important as the inner beauty and it shall not be neglected when it comes to a crucial decision making in choosing a person who we would live together for the rest of our life. Marrying someone with good appearance is important not only to ensure that our descendent inherits the good looking genetics but also to make sure that we will not regret at the end of the day when we found out that the dissatisfaction with simple things has eventually becoming the flaws in the relationship.
