The Lesson of the Grasshopper

A horse, enchanted by the song of grasshoppers, seeks to imitate them, believing their music will make him strong. Ignoring his own nature, he neglects his food and becomes weak. The grasshoppers offer to teach him, but he learns too late that imitating others can lead to ruin. The story conveys a moral about self-acceptance and the dangers of trying to be something one is not. #selfacceptance #confidence #nature #wisdom #imitation 00:00-00:14 An *** had heard some grasshoppers chirping. 00:14-00:17 He was enchanted with their song. 00:17-00:20 Where did you get that song from, Setty? 00:20-00:26 And because it has made me strong, our food is doing nothing more, said they. 00:26-00:37 Such music gives us power, we could teach you if you like they said, but don't expect it in an hour. 00:37-00:45 So he left his stable and pasture and only ate dew from the flowers. 00:45-00:50 But he was weak in a couple of days and couldn't chirp even after a shower. 00:50-01:05 And be content with your nature and abilities and know who you are, because imitating others can lead to ruin and make you look like a horse's ***. 01:05-01:09 Don't be an ***. 01:09-01:19 Yes, I know that you're not 'cause you could not make it here without some confidence. 01:19-02:23 So be content with your nature and abilities and know who you are 'cause imitating others can lead to ruin and make you look like a horse's ***.
