The Ass And The Grasshoppers


     Once an ass found some grasshoppers singing happily in a grassy corner of the field.
     Their singing was very musical and cheerful. "What is it, Grasshoppers," the ass asked them," that makes you sing such beautiful songs? Is there any special food that you eat?" "Yes," replied the grasshoppers," we will tell you the secret. We drink only the dew found on flowers and leaves."

    The ass was so eager to sing well that he ate and drank only dew. The foolish ass soon died of hunger.
     Moral: Don't try to imitate others if you don't have the talent.
