One day, an old possum was going to try papaya. But the papaya fruits grew very high, and the possum, despite all her efforts, could not get them. Until late at night, she did not stop trying to get to them, but every time she fell down from the trunk. Already at dawn, completely exhausted, she realized that she was not destined to enjoy papaya, and consoled herself: “Why do I need it! I won't eat it..."
