Sheep for Tears
When I was leading a summer camp in the US, I got an horrible treatment from the management. I was sick, and it looked like they are looking for me. I came, all teary, to the person in charge of the infants, who looked like a nice man. He held a staffed animal in a shape of a sheep, and listen while I was crying. When I was done, he looked at me in sad gaze and said that he can’t help me… Then he pressed the tummy of the toy sheep and she went “Mehhh”. I laughed, and he decided to give it to me. Ever since whenever I feel sad, I press on the sheep’s tummy and laugh (Ami, Israel)
