The Fox and the Grapes 🦊🍇
A hungry fox saw grapes hanging high and tried to reach them. After many failed attempts, he walked away, muttering, "Those grapes are probably sour anyway."
Moral: It's easy to disdain what we can't have. 🧐

The Parable and the Peach
A Sufi teacher always concluded each lesson with a parable, but his students often struggled to grasp its meaning.
One evening, a student approached him and asked,
"Teacher, you share these stories with us, but you never explain their meanings."
The teacher apologized,
"My apologies. Let me make amends by offering you a delicious peach."
"Thank you, teacher," the student replied, delighted.
"May I peel it for you, to make it more enjoyable?"
"Thank you very much," said the student.
"Would you like me to cut it into pieces for easier eating?"
"Of course... But I wouldn’t want to take advantage of your kindness, teacher."
"You’re not taking advantage; it’s my offer. In fact, let me chew it for you before giving it to you," the teacher said with a smile.
"No, teacher! I don’t want that!" replied the astonished student.
The teacher fell silent for a moment.
"If I explained the meaning of every story, it would be like offering to chew the fruit for you before you taste it yourself."

"The archer draws his bow only when it is needed, and loosens the string when it is not. For if the bow were constantly drawn, it would break. The same is true of human nature: if a person were always to devote himself to serious matters, without allowing any leisure or jokes, he would either gradually fall into madness or immediately be struck by paralysis."

Black and White Crow 🦅
A fable by Vladimir Shebzukhov
...He turned out to be of a lower rank!
S. Mikhalkov "The Thick and the Thin"
The Black Crow suddenly entered the restaurant 🍽.
Upon seeing the White Crow in the corner,
She devised a plan known only to her.
Her voice exuded pomposity and confidence:
"Hey, waiter! I'll pay for the food
That the guests ordered in the restaurant.
But I won’t include the White Crow's meal.
You can present her the bill yourselves!
I give this payment as a gift!"
The White Crow cried: "Thank you!" 🙏
The Black Crow didn't expect this.
"Hey, waiter! Pour wine for everyone!
I’ll pay for all the wine in cash.
The White Crow shouldn’t drink wine!
I give this payment as a gift!"
The White Crow cried: "Thank you!" 🙌
And the Black Crow whispered into the waiter's ears,
Only quietly approaching the bar:
"The White Crow isn't friendly with her head!
She would have been offended and left long ago!"
The waiter replied truthfully:
"The White Crow is the restaurant's director!" 🦸♀️
