In the daytime, in the town of Sariwa lived all kinds of vegetables with their own beauty.
Pumpkin with peculiar sweetness, Tomato with salty and silky complexion, Luya with sharpness, Labanos very whitish, Talong with purple skin, Mustasa's green cheeks, Singleton with peculiar baked goods, Onion with thin skin, and Patola with attractive skin.
But with a vegetable emerging in its peculiar form, he was Ampalaya in pale pale color, and his taste was indescribable.
Every day, Ampalaya does nothing but compare her appearance and taste with her vegetables, and consequently she plots her fellow greens.
At night Ampalaya took all the good qualities of the vegetables and dressed them.
Ampalaya is very happy because the former vegetable that is now being overlooked is under attack. But no secret candle was revealed gathering the vegetables he had robbed.
They have agreed to follow the vegetable with a unique taste, and they are surprised to find that it uncovers the qualities they possess. Their eyes widened as Ampalaya glared at them.
The vegetables became angry and they presented Ampalaya to the landlady. They reported the alleged robbery of Ampalya. This made the fairy angry and all the good qualities that her fellow vegetarians took.
Ampalaya was overjoyed because he thought it was the only payment for his sin. But after a while his appearance changed.
Her skin was wrinkled as the smoothness and scratches of the chair and tomato clashed inside her body. Even the various flavors of the vegetable brought him such a bad taste that it made him bitter. Her color turned dark green.
Now, although Ampalaya is a healthy vegetable, many do not like her because of her bitter taste.
Lesson:
Envy does nothing good.
God created us with different qualities so we can be content and avoid comparing ourselves to others.
