To reach it, they all had to stack themselves to the height of the tree and allow the topmost animal to pick it.

It started well enough with every animal willingly lifting up his brethren. But the closer they got, the more each wanted it for themselves. First the rabbit climbed up to pick it, then the turtle, then the dog; until eventually this cooperative effort devolved into some absurd game where every animal strove to climb over his own brethren and in so doing ensured no one would reach the blossom despite being so close to it.

Gusto kasi ng mga pulitiko natin na manatiling mangmang ang mga tao. Dahil pag nawala ang kamangmangan ng mga tao, matututo silang maging independent at Hindi na nila kailangang maniwala pa sa sinasabi ng mga Pulitiko.
