The proud crow story

The crows are ugly to look at. So they are unhappy. They want to be beautiful. But how! Once a  crow got a chance to be beautiful. One day the crow found some beautiful feathers of a peacock in a Jungle and the crow became very happy. He took the feathers one by one and struck them in among his own feather. He looked at himself and he looked beautiful. He became glad and proud because he was no longer ugly like other crows. So the crow made up his mind to go to the peacocks and live with them. Seeing him the peacocks understood that he was the crow in the guise of a  peacock. The peacocks attacked him, pulled out the false feathers and drove him away. When he returned to the crows, the crows also drove him away. The crow realised his fault. He promised to the crows that he would never be  false or over ambitious.

Moral : High ambition leads to ruin.
