About This Quote
In the story of Little Red Riding Hood, the wolf gave Little Red Riding Hood a big hug and said that she was his friend. This is a metaphor for how we can be one with other people. Being able to see the good in others and believe in them and support them makes them feel like we are their best friends. They know that we care about them and will be there for them no matter what.
