Once upon a time, in a vast green forest, a hungry fox was wandering around in search of food. After wandering for hours, the fox came across a grapevine loaded with luscious, ripe grapes. The fox's mouth watered at the sight of the grapes, and he felt delighted at his good fortune.
The fox jumped and tried to grab the grapes, but they were too high for him to reach. He tried again and again, but each time he failed to reach the grapes. After many attempts, the fox got tired and frustrated, but he didn't give up. He kept jumping and jumping, but the grapes remained out of reach.
After a while, the fox became exhausted and realized that he would never be able to reach the grapes. Feeling defeated, the fox walked away, telling himself that the grapes were probably sour anyway.
The moral of the story is that often, people belittle things that they cannot have. They convince themselves that they never wanted those things, to begin with, to ease the pain of rejection. The story of the fox and the grapes is a perfect example of how we sometimes pretend that we didn't want something after failing to get it.
From that day on, the fox never tried to reach for grapes again. Instead, he learned to accept what he had and make the best of it. He realized that the grapes might have been sour, but he would never know for sure since he never tried them.
The fox learned that sometimes, it's better to appreciate what you have instead of longing for what you can't have.
