The Deer's Antlers and Legs: A Retelling
Hey there! My English teacher asked us to retell an old fable or folk tale using our own words and style. I decided to go with
the classic story of "The Deer's Antlers and Legs" because I find the moral pretty thought-provoking. Let me give it a go!
So there was once this deer who was just vibing in the forest, minding his own business. Now this particular deer was super proud of his awesome antlers. I mean, they were majestic AF –big, branching out like a piece of twisted driftwood art. The deer loved showing them off, using them to scratch hard-to-reach spots and raking the velvet off when molting season came around.
One day, while the deer was grazing, he spotted his reflection in a crystal-clear lake. As he admired his striking antlers, he noticed his stringy little legs poking out from under his slender body. The deer suddenly felt embarrassed and
self-conscious about how weedy his legs looked, especially in comparison to his crowning glory up top.
The deer just couldn't stop fixating on his scrawny legs after that. He started saying to himself, "Damn, these spindly toothpicks are so skimpy and lame. How could nature have blessed me with such incredible headgear yet completely jipped me on the leg department? This is totally unfair!"
For ages, the deer wandered the forest in a sulk, complaining nonstop about his puny legs to any creature who would listen –
which, let's be real, was none of them because animals tend to avoid negative nancys. Even the deer's own legs started to get majorly offended by the constant insults and haterade.
Finally, the legs decided they had endured enough abuse. One day, as the deer was mid-rant about their flimsiness, they just stopped cooperating. The deer suddenly found himself unable to move, stuck in one spot like a lawn ornament.
The deer huffed, "Now what's going on with you lazy bums? We can't just stand here all day! The meadow grass is getting trampled, and I need to go quench my thirst."
But the legs stayed stubbornly rooted in place, refusing to budge an inch. They smugly replied, "Oh, so now you need us? Make up your mind, your royal antler-ness. For months, you've been putting us down, whining about how puny and pathetic we are. Well, we're no longer going to enable your disrespectful attitude. Get used to this spot, because we're on strike!"
Realizing his legs weren't kidding around, the deer finally had to eat some humble pie. He knew he couldn't survive without using his legs to find food, water, and shelter.
The deer sighed deeply, "You're absolutely right, legs. I've been a real jerk, constantly running you down and failing to
appreciate how crucial you are. Those antlers I adore so much? They're just accessories. You two are the unsung heroes, the real workhorses who allow me to live. From now on, I vow to give you the honor and respect you deserve."
Hearing the deer's sincere apology, the legs decided to end their labor strike. They allowed the deer's body to move again, gratefully carrying their master to the drinking hole and a fresh grazing patch.
True to his word, the deer never insulted his legs again. He realized that constantly pitting his body parts against each other was counterproductive – all of his attributes, from antlers to eyes to tail, played important roles and deserved equal appreciation.
From that day on, the deer viewed himself as a cohesive, integrated being rather than a weird mishmash of inadequate pieces and outstanding pieces. He aimed for humble confidence, taking pride in his impressive antlers without putting down other aspects of himself. The deer learned that the key to feeling truly complete was recognizing the value and dignity of all his qualities, inside and out.
And I guess that's the moral of this quirky old tale: don't fixate on your insecurities and perceived flaws, or you'll overlook all the other dope things about yourself. Embrace and celebrate
your wholeness, flaws and all – that's what real confidence is made of. It's about being secure enough to let your light shine without throwing shade on pieces of you that don't seem as bright.
So yeah, that's my creative retelling of "The Deer's Antlers and Legs"! I had fun narrating this story from the perspective of the angsty, self-loathing deer coming to appreciate itself for all its parts working together. Hopefully my modern slang and sense of humor made this ancient wisdom more relatable and engaging for my peers. Let me know if you dig my millennial fable remix or if you were expecting more of a basic, literal translation. I'm always open to constructive criticism on my writing. Peace out!

Antlers and Legs
You know how every story has a moral at the end? A lesson to be learned? Well, this one definitely does. And trust me, by the time I'm done telling it, you'll know exactly what that lesson is. It's all about making assumptions and judging others before you know the full story. We've all been guilty of it at some point, I
know I have. But after hearing this tale, you might think twice before jumping to conclusions again.
It all started when I was out hiking with my parents in the woods near our village. The leaves were just starting to change color and there was a crisp chill in the air. We'd been walking for maybe an hour, just taking in the sights and sounds of nature, when suddenly I heard a loud crashing noise up ahead. It sounded like something huge was barreling through the trees and brush.
My dad shot me a look and put his finger to his lips, signaling for us to be quiet. We froze in our tracks and waited. The crashing grew louder and louder until finally, emerging from the foliage, was the largest stag I had ever seen. This thing was an absolute unit - his antlers must have spanned six feet across and looked sharper than knives. He snorted and pawed at the ground, clearly agitated.
Before I could even process what was happening, a smaller deer came bursting out right behind the big one. But this deer looked...off. As it got closer, I realized with shock that its back legs were gone! Just two stumpy little nubs where its back legs should have been. It was essentially hopping along on its front legs, surprisingly fast despite its obvious disadvantage.
The monstrous stag turned and saw the legless deer coming towards it. It reared up on its hind legs, shaking its antlers menacingly. I was sure we were about to witness one of the most savage battles nature had to offer. Naturally, my first thought was that the bigger, fully-abled stag was about to attack and kill the crippled one.
But then, something unexpected happened. Instead of charging, the stag started...nudging the legless deer along with its antlers! It would gently scoop the deer up and push it forward a few feet, then let it hop ahead a bit before repeating the process. The two of them slowly made their way across the path in front of us, with the stag patiently guiding and protecting its unusual companion.
I was dumbfounded. This massive, intimidating creature that I had assumed was a brutal killer was actually being incredibly gentle and caring towards the disabled deer. My assumptions could not have been more wrong.
Once they had passed, my dad squeezed my shoulder and gave me a meaningful look, like he could read my mind. He didn't need to say anything - I knew exactly what he was getting at with that look. Don't judge a book by its cover. Don't make
assumptions about someone or something until you know the whole story.
That experience stuck with me in a big way. Whenever I catch myself starting to make snap judgments, I think back to those two deer. The big one could have easily killed or abandoned the legless one - harsh as it sounds, that's just nature's way. The strong survive and the weak fall behind. But instead, the stag chose to defy those expectations and show incredible compassion.
It made me realize how easy it is to look at someone or something and make all sorts of conclusions about who or what they are, what they're capable of, how they'll act, etc. Just based on superficial things like their appearance or abilities or disabilities. But so often, if you scratch beneath the surface, the reality is far different than your initial assumption.
That encounter was a powerful lesson in not prejudging others until you know their full story. In being more accepting and compassionate, even when someone seems "different" or "less than" at first glance. You just never know the kind of unexpected grace or strength of character that may lie beneath.
So that's the story of the antlers and legs. A simple tale about some deer in the woods, but one that fundamentally
shifted my perspective on making assumptions. I'll never forget the shock I felt when that stag defied all my expectations by protecting the weaker deer rather than attacking it. It was one of those profound moments in life when you realize how wrong you can be, and how important it is to stay humble and withhold judgment until you understand the full picture.
Maybe that big stag and legless deer will cross paths with someone else in those woods someday. And maybe that person will get the same powerful lesson that I did - to not judge too quickly, and to have a more open mind and heart. If so, then those deer will have taught one of life's most valuable lessons twice over. Not bad for a couple of forest critters, huh?

The Deer's Antlers and Legs: Retelling a Classic Tale
When our English teacher assigned us the task of retelling a classic story in our own words, I knew exactly which tale I wanted to tackle - the allegory of the deer's antlers and legs. This amusing little story has been passed down for generations, teaching an important lesson about the dangers of vanity and the virtues of appreciating our natural gifts. While the core narrative is simple, I've always found deeper meaning in the silly
premise and creative resolution. Here is my personal retelling of this childhood favorite:
Once upon a time, in a vast forest far away, there lived a majestic stag with a thick, velvety coat and a stunning crown of antlers. The deer took great pride in his impressive rack, polishing and preening his ornate headpiece regularly. The antlers were truly a sight to behold - each tine lengthy and perfectly shaped, the whole arrangement fanning out in glorious symmetry. Whenever the stag caught his reflection in a stream or pool, he would stop to admire himself, marveling at his regal appearance. "Surely, there is no deer as handsome and noble as I," he would muse vainly.
While the stag's vanity over his antlers was undoubtedly excessive, one could hardly blame him for being enamored with such magnificent natural ornaments. During the autumn mating season especially, the deer's massive rack of antlers served as an invaluable asset for attracting mates and intimidating rivals. Does would swoon at his virile, impressive display, while lesser bucks wisely kept their distance from this apex alpha male.
However, as beloved as his antlers were, the stag had one major source of insecurity - his spindly, unimpressive legs. To the deer's eyes, his lean legs seemed gangly and disproportionate
compared to the grandeur of his crowning glories. He deeply resented having such a glaring flaw obscuring his otherwise flawless aesthetic. "If only my legs were as striking as my antlers," the vain creature would lament whenever he studied his form. "Then I would truly be the most splendid beast in the forest!"
One fateful day, as the stag was grazing, he spied a peculiar boneyard nearby filled with skeletons of various departed forest creatures. His curiosity piqued, he sauntered over and began investigating the odd gravesite. As he surveyed the cracked and weathered remains, he noticed one particular skeleton that still had antlers attached - a sturdy, if unremarkable, set of bones and horns. The stag's eyes lit up with inspiration as a boldly stupid idea took form in his mind. Perhaps there was a way to finally attain true perfection...
Using his sharp antlers as tools, the stag broke off the bony legs from the skeleton and discarded his own spindly limbs. With great effort, he then managed to affix the new skeletal legs in their place. His ambitious surgery complete, the stag triumphantly stood back to appraise his handiwork with glee. At first glance, the bony additions did seem sturdier and more proportional than his original thin legs - though their dry,
unnatural appearance clashed horribly with his own living, fleshy body.
Disregarding such trivial imperfections, the overly
self-satisfied stag was overwhelmed with pride over his innovative solution. "Finally, a figure befitting my magnificence!" he declared brazenly.With renewed swagger and confidence from his "upgrade," the deer strode off to show his new look, eager to bask in the admiration of the whole forest.
Alas, the other forest denizens did not share his enthusiastic opinion of the garish prosthetics. Instead of marveling at his beauty, everyone who saw the freakish heterogeneous beast recoiled in shock, disgust, or morbid fascination. Those few who dared approach noted how disturbingly fragile the skeletal contraptions looked, creaking and struggling to support the stag's weight with every lurching step. Even the
normally-infatuated does turned their noses up at this horrifying chimera, thrown into an outright panic by its grotesque appearance.
As word spread of the stag's unnatural augmentations, the other deer began actively avoiding him for fear the strange curse or disease behind his situation might be contagious. Scorned and shunned from every thicket and glade, the once-proud stag
found himself utterly alone - a pariah shamed by his own arrogant folly.
As the unlucky beast continued wearing the cumbersome bony implants, they began taking a major toll. The skeletal extensions provided no muscle, constantly depleting the stag's energy with every sluggish movement of the needlessly heavy ballast weighing him down. Between his growing fatigue and the sharp ebony protrusions digging painfully into his flesh, the deer was in constant agony. What he once viewed as elegant "upgrades" now felt like unbearable anchors, both literally and metaphorically.
The reckless surgical renovation that was supposed to make him the quintessential cervine spectacle had in fact ossified into a horrible disfigurement and source of interminable suffering. Worst of all, the stag's antlers - those magnificent headpieces that were once the healthy source of his vanity - were now frequently getting tangled, cracked, and marred from the relentless brushing against the unwieldy protruding bones of his "new legs."
At long last, the beaten and defeated stag realized the grave foolishness of his self-indulgent pursuit of an artificial "perfection." He had irreversibly maimed and deformed himself
out of an idiotic refusal to appreciate the humble yet elegant natural form he was born with. In a desperate attempt to reclaim a shred of normalcy, the stag managed to finally dislodge the wretched bony implants, snapping them off through sheer force of miserable will.
Though he was freed from those unnatural shackles, the damage was already done - his original delicate legs atrophied from disuse, and his once-vibrant velvet coat had become matted, dulled, and lacerated. The glorious rack of antlers that started this whole ordeal was now a pitiful shadow of its former majestic self, cracked and splintered nearly beyond recognition. Rather than standing as a lordly icon of beauty, the stag had become a pathetic object of ruin, a living reminder of the perils of vanity taken to an extreme.
As the broken creature limped off alone into the unforgiving forest night, he haplessly reflected on the harsh wisdom he had finally Iearned from his repulsive body modification debacle: "True beauty is not skin deep - it comes from the elegant harmony of outward form and inner essence. Those born with gifts should cherish them with grace and humility, not disdainful contempt. To strive for superficial flawlessness at the cost of one's own fundamental nature is folly of the highest order. Alas,
it took mutilating myself into an accursed freak for that painful lesson to finally pierce my vain skull..."
And so ends the tragic tale of the deer who tampered with his natural design in blind pursuit of an artificial "ideal" beauty. Though his intentions stemmed from mere vapid vanity, the stag's disastrous ordeal reminds us all that true self-worth should never come from outward appearance alone. We are each born with intrinsic gifts that should be appreciated for their own simple virtues, lest our vain chasing of empty aesthetic perfection devolve into a similarly hideous downward spiral of self-destruction and eternal shame.。
