Don't Overlook What You Have, Hoping For What You Want

A mole said to his mother, "I am sure that I can see, mother." Now moles are blind from birth, but have a wonderful sense of smell. The mole's mother put a little bit of an expensive herb near her son. "What is it?", she asked. The young mole was too eager to prove that he could see. He said, "it is a stone".
