The Donkey and the Grasshopper
posted in Donkey, Grasshopper |A Donkey, having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was greatly intrigued and wanted to possess the same charming melody.
The Donkey asked one of the Grasshoppers what sort of food they lived on to give them such beautiful voices.
They replied, “The dew.”
Upon hearing this, the Donkey decided that he would live only upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.
Moral: Only do what is appropriate for you to do.
