Title: The Fox and the Grapes
One hot day, a hungry fox was strolling through a vineyard when he
spotted a bunch of ripe grapes hanging high up on a vine. The grapes
looked delicious, and the fox's mouth watered at the thought of
tasting them.The fox jumped and leaped several times trying to reach
the grapes, but they were always just out of his reach. After several
attempts, the fox grew tired and frustrated. He stood under the
grapes, gazing up at them with disdain."Oh, those grapes are probably
sour and not worth eating," said the fox, turning away.The moral of
the story is that people often belittle what they cannot attain. It’s a
way to comfort oneself when one cannot get what they desire.
