It was such a scorching day that every animal could hardly get relief. One day, a fox wandered across the jungle in order to get food. Soon he came to a vineyard which was laden with juicy grapes. The fox observed around him to confirm whether he was safe from the hunters or not. He was absolutely ravenous, so he decided to steal some grapes before anyone came along. He jumped again and again as high as he could, but couldn’t reach the grapes. The grapes were too high for him. He was not ready to give up. He backed off, took some running steps and leapt into the air towards the grapes. Again, he failed to reach them. It was getting dark, and he was getting angry. His legs hurt with all that running and jumping. At last, he stopped trying and walked away saying he didn’t want those grapes. They would be too sour to eat.
Moral : We pretend something to be ugly, if we do not get it.
