111. The
Wolf and Sugarcane
Once upon a time,
a wolf while wandering in a forest reached a field of sugarcane belonging to a
farmer. But the fact is that wolves don't eat sugarcane. The wolf was about to
move away when he saw a horse coming towards him. He decided to wait for him
and extend a hand of friendship towards him. When the horse came, the wolf said
to him, “Hello! Mr. Horse! How are you? See this fine field of sugarcane; I
have left it untouched for you. I shall enjoy seeing you munching the ripe
grains.” The horse smiled and said, “Mr. Wolf! Had you been able to eat the
sugarcane, you would not have thought of troubling your eyes at all. Rather you
would have engaged in filling your appetite.” The wolf felt highly ashamed and
went away.

Don't gave others your useless appreciation.
