Over time, however, they became discontented with their way of life, and thought they should have a mighty king to rule over them. They called out to the great god <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeus" target="_blank">Zeus</a> to send them a king. Zeus was amused by the frogs' request, and cast a large log down into their pond, saying "Behold, your king!" At first, the frogs were terrified of the huge log, but after seeing that it did not move, they began to climb upon it. Once they realized the log would not move, they called out again to Zeus to send them a real king, one that moved. Annoyed by the frogs, Zeus said, "Very well, here is your new king," and sent a large stork to the pond. The stork began devouring frogs. In terror, frogs called out to Zeus to save them. Zeus refused, saying the frogs now had what they'd wanted, and had to face the consequences. To some, the simple lesson of the story is "leave well enough alone," or "be careful what you wish for."<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
