The Ass and The Lapdog

Once a farmer had a Lapdog and he also had many asses on his farm. The lapdog would get to sit on the master's lap. The master always brought the dog something to eat from the market. Wagging its tail, the dog would jump onto the master's lap and lick on his face. The dog always seemed playful and happy. One of the asses envied the dog. The ass had to work hard on the field with the same food every day. The master never noticed the ass. Feeling jealous and not loved, the ass decided to attract the master's attention. One day, when the mastered returned from the market and had just sat down on a chair, the ass entered into the master's room. The ass Jumped, lied on the floor, again jumped, wagging its tail, it jumped onto the table. The table broke into pieces. Then it leapt and put its two front legs onto the master's lap, which hurt him and the chair was also broken into pieces leaving the master on the floor. Hearing all the noise and the master's scream, the servants ran into the room. The ass was about to lick on the master's face, the servants whipped the ass from behind. The ass was tied up and it was whipped severely and repeatedly while being taken back to the stable.

Moral: Never imitate others.

Based on Aesop's Fable
