There were once 2 older brothers that lived in a village. They were fond of themselves, and very greedy. They had a younger brother who was always kind and listened to them. One day, the king wanted a prince for a princess and was holding a questionnaire. The 3 sons wanted to go, so they all dressed nicely and rode along on their horses to the castle. As soon as they got there, while they thought the princess wasn't looking, they took the younger son's horse and messed up his clothes. As soona as the younger brother got there, the princess questioned him. " Why are you in rags?" " My brother took my clothes and messed them up." he said. " Why do you have no horse?" " My brothers took it." he replied. ' Why did they take it?" " They wanted you not to pick me for a prince. I respect that and let them win you." " Oh, you are such a kindhearted boy! you are my prince!" And they had a great wedding. It turned out while the older brothers wanted to make things worse for the little brother, they had made it better.

    In this story the victim is rewarded for being a victim. It may not have worked that way in the real world until the welfare state and frivolous lawsuits. It did not work that way in stories, ancient or modern. In stories, victims earn rewards, although they may have help, human and divine. Examples include Moses, Joseph, Oedipus, Perseus, Cyrus, Jesus, and the Count of Monte Cristo. Heroic success, however, does not always exclude a tragic end.

    It's too bad, however, that that's not how things work in the real world.  Nice guys finish last.
