Once upon a time there lived a group of frogs in a pond. One day an Ox came to that pond to drink water. As he entered into the pond he smashed a young frog into the mud. He didn't notice that there was a frog sitting in the bush. The old Frog soon realized that the little frog was missing and questioned his siblings what had become of him.
Mom there was a huge monster came to our pond and stepped on little brother with one of his large feet! Oh, really it was very big, said the old Frog. She started puffing herself upward. Was he as huge as this? Oh mother he was much much bigger than you.
The Frog puffed up still much more. He could not have been larger than this, she said. But the little Frogs almost all expressed that the monster was much, much bigger and the old Frog kept puffing herself out more and more until finally all of a sudden she burst. All the children missed their mother.
Morals: Always aim high but do not attempt the impossible.
