When it comes to the fable "The fox and the grapes," we can answer concerning a situation in society today and the moral of the story in the following manner:

A. A situation in society today in which we might see the same reaction as the fox is when a famous person announces an event in their life, be it a marriage, a new project, etc. It is common for people to act like the fox, badmouthing that person when, in reality, they wish they could be like her/him.

B. The moral of the story "The fox and the grapes" is that we despise and express contempt for the very things we wish we had. That is a way to protect our egos. We would rather lie to ourselves than admit we are envious of someone else.

<h3>What happens in "The fox and the grapes"?</h3>
  • In this fable by Aesop, the fox wants to a bunch of grapes he can see hanging, but he cannot reach them no matter how much he tries. Angry at that fact, but lying to himself, the fox calls the grapes sour and says he does not need them.
  • The moral of the story is that we often lie to ourselves and belittle others as a way to protect our egos. When we wish we had something but we do not possess it, we often pretend it to be something we do not care about.
  • Take social media, for example, which has given us direct access to some of our favorite actors, singers, and artists in general. Thousands of people send them messages of hate and criticism on a daily basis.
  • Such people are most likely, just like the fox, projecting their own fears and insecurities on those who are famous and who achieve things we normally cannot.
