On the middle of the forest was this aggressive tiger, watching keenly his target ‘The Spotted Deer’. It is far away from him, far away from what a normal tiger could reach. He is hungry and tired having chased it for a long time. His friends advice him to leave it for its far away, far beyond its reach. Instead he can try the goats nearby. They are easy to kill and can fill his stomach and his cubs. The tiger does not take his eye away from the deer. He is watching its movements carefully and is confident of getting him. His enemies mock at him for not able to catch anything. The tiger knows that it can catch the goats like every other tiger does, but that is not what he wanted. He never bothered what his enemies say. His cubs cry out of hunger, the tiger’s heart cries. The tiger wanted to feed his cubs with deer and not goats, but the cubs can’t wait. The moment the tiger took his eyes towards his cubs he lost his deer. When he regains he finds that the deer is still far away. The tiger is confused, should he take on the goats and feed his cubs or wait and hit the deer. The tiger was loosing confidence, not all tigers who targeted the spotted deer were successful. His fellow tiger told they were just history and not practical. Having chased the deer for so long the tiger’s hears fails to settle for a goat. His fellow tigers celebrate their successes hunting goats. Everytime the tiger takes his eye away from the deer to see what others do the deer moves far away. In his mind the tiger decides not hear what his friends say, not to see what his enemies do, not to get sentimental of his cubs. The Eye of the tiger is on its target, it records its movements, steady and with pace the tigers brings down the deer.
With pride it brings back the deer. The tiger made history.
