The story of camel and sheep

Camels grow tall and sheep grow short. The camel said, "He is tall and good." The sheep said, "No, it's better to be shorter." The camel said, "I can do one thing to prove that height is better than short." The sheep said, "I can also do one thing to prove that being short is better than being tall."

They came to a garden. There is a wall around the garden, in which many trees are planted, and lush branches and leaves protrude from the wall. Camels eat leaves as soon as they look up. The sheep raised its front legs against the wall and stretched out its neck, but it still couldn't eat. The camel said, "You see, this can prove that height is better than short." The sheep shook its head and refused to give up.

After a few more steps, they saw a narrow and short door on the fence. The sheep swaggered into the door to eat the grass in the garden. The camel knelt on its front legs, lowered its head and entered the door, but it couldn't get in. The sheep said, "You see, this can prove that being short is better than being tall." The camel shook its head and refused to give up.

They went to talk to the old cow. The old cow said, "You both only see your own advantages, but you can't see your own shortcomings. This is not right. "
