A hunter once lost his way in the forest while running after a deer. As hard as he tried, he could not find a way out of the forest, nor could he find any food to eat. He felt so hungry that he could eat an elephant in one go. Disappointed, he lost all hope. And that was exactly when he saw an apple tree. It was the best possible surprise anyone could have given him. He picked some apples to feed him for the rest of his search.

As he ate the first apple, he felt thankful for finding the tree. He thanked the forest. He could not believe his luck when he ate the first apple. but he was less thankful while eating the second one and even less thankful after eating the third apple…With each passing apple, his hunger didn't go away and he became less and less happy.  ▲  

Why? He had already taken for granted to find an apple tree in the middle of a forest. When he took the tenth apple in his hand, he was still very hungry, but he just did not feel like eating any more. Scientists call it the tenth apple effect.

The tenth apple did not lack taste and can help us end the man's hunger. The only thing lacking was his thankfulness for finding food in the middle of the forest.
