Description:		Translation (Rita Seng Mai) In the past, owls didn't have big eyes like now. Their eyes were small. They have very small eyes. Owls were the animals which ate fruits. They were always finding those. One day, an owl saw schima wallichii tree and there were many fruits bearing on that tree. Then the owl plucked one and ate that. But it was not ready to eat yet, then he thought, "May be it is not ripe yet. It is not mature yet." Then he kept waiting for the fruits to be ripe. His eyes were getting bigger and bigger while waiting for the fruits to be ripe. But the fruits were not mature yet. Then one day, he decided to eat the fruits no matter they were ripe or not. "What kind of fruit takes too much time to be ripe?" he thought to himself. When he plucked the fruits and cracked it, there was nothing inside the fruit. So he was so surprised. His eyes were bigger than before since then. So, you expect something to happen (something that is impossible to happen to you) and you wish for that, but you feel depressed if that doesn't happen. Then our elders usually say to that kind of person, "You are like an owl waiting for schima wallichii fruits to be ripe, those can never be ripe." At last, owl's eyes were big. This is the end.
