The way the pig is labeled based on his Vietnamese heritage, despite being born in the U.S., mirrors the real-world experiences of many immigrants and their descendants. Even when someone identifies as fully American, they can still be seen as "other" because of their background. The parrot's insistence on framing the pig's identity through an ethnic lens—rather than his actual achievements—reflects how media narratives and public discourse can shape (and sometimes distort) the way individuals are perceived.
This is especially important now, given the ongoing discussions about immigration in the U.S. Many immigrants and first-generation Americans face similar struggles with identity, belonging, and how they're portrayed in society. The story also highlights how insecurities—whether about identity, appearance, or status—can be exacerbated by external judgments.
Themes and Interpretation
•	Identity and Stereotyping: The pig’s frustration highlights how labels—whether about ethnicity or body image—can shape and limit a person’s self-perception.
•	Media Manipulation: The parrot, representing a journalist, distorts facts for a sensationalized story, raising questions about bias and ethics in reporting.
•	Self-Perception and Insecurity: The pig’s struggles with his body image illustrate how external judgments can create deep-seated insecurities.
•	Cultural Commentary: The story subtly critiques societal assumptions about identity and heritage, showing how people (or animals) can be boxed in by others’ perceptions.

【程门立雪】讲的是尊师重教的故事。
程颐yi2
程颢hao4

      北宋时福建将东县有个叫杨时的进士，特别喜好钻研学问，到处寻师访友，曾就学于洛阳著名学者程颢门下。程颢去世前，将杨时推荐到其弟程颐门下，在洛阳伊川所建的伊川书院中求学。杨时那时已四十多岁，学问也相当高，但他仍谦虚谨慎，尊师敬友，深得程颐的喜爱，被程颐视为得意门生，得其真传。一天，杨时向程颐请求学问，不巧赶上老师正在屋中打盹儿。杨时静待门口，等老师醒来。一会儿，天飘起鹅毛大雪，直到程颐一觉醒来。程颐深受感动，更加尽心尽力教杨时，杨时不负众望，终于学到了老师的全部学问。之后，杨时回到南方传播程氏理学，且形成独家学派，世称“龟山先生”。后人便用“程门立雪”这个典故，来赞扬求学师门，诚心专志，尊师重道的学子。
