I want to write about a story that I learned in class. The title of the story is Sugan-san’s Goat. This story looks simple, but I think it has a deep meaning. It made me think about nature, animals, and humans. The main character is a young goat named Blanket. He lives in Sugan-san’s field, but he wants to go to the mountain. The mountain is a place of nature and freedom for him. When Blanket goes into the mountain, he feels very happy. In the story, it is written that he rolls on the ground among leaves and nuts. From this scene, I felt that nature is very important for animals. Animals want to live by their instincts, not only in a safe place made by humans. However, this story is not saying that humans are bad. Blanket loves Sugan-san very much. Even after leaving the field, he still thinks of himself as “Sugan-san’s brave goat.” This part was very touching for me. It shows that Blanket is proud of being loved by Sugan-san. Their relationship does not disappear even when they are far away. I think the interesting point of this story is the balance between freedom and love. Blanket chooses nature and freedom, but he does not forget the human who cares for him. This story taught me that animals can love humans, and humans can respect animals. That is why I recommend this story to my friends.
