What does the monkey mean by looking at the stars?

A monkey looking at the stars means pursuing an ideal. A group of monkeys are playing on the mountain. A monkey saw Bai Yue in the sky and wanted to take it off. So he whistled and called the monkeys to a mountain peak. They piled up one by one to build a monkey ladder. The smallest monkey climbed to the top to pick the moon, and it desperately grabbed it. The monkey ladder staggered out of balance and fell from the top of the mountain. Everyone is depressed because the moon has not been picked. Some people say that the first monkey to see the moon was the one who knew how to look up at the stars earlier. Put aside these abstruse philosophical questions and learn monkeys' jokes because of ignorance.
