166. The Crab And The Fox

A Crab, forsaking the sea-shore, chose a
neighbouring green meadow as its feeding ground. A Fox came across him, and being very much famished ate him up. Just as he was on the point of being eaten he said, "I well deserve my fate; for what business had I on t
he land, when by my nature and habits I am only adapted for the sea?"

Contentment with our lot is an element of happiness.
166. 螃蟹和狐狸
一只蟹离开海滨,挑了一块邻近的青草地,当做它的食场。 一只狐狸走过它的面前,因为非常饥饿,就吃掉它。 它正要被狐狸吞食的时候,自言自语说道:「我真是自作自受!因为在我的天性和习惯上,我是适合住在海里的,我为什么还要跑到岸上来呢?」
安分守己则常乐。
