The Little Star
Once upon a time high above the night sky there was a Little Star. This Little Star was a bundle of energy, always excited and hardly ever remained still. When this star smiled the whole Earth was covered with light for an instant, and everybody felt warmth and love. It was an amazing thing to experience.
One day the Little Star stopped smiling.
Her friend, the Moon, asked why she was no longer smiling and the Little Star responded:
“I want to smile, but something has happened which has taken away my light.”
The Moon smiled at the Little Star and said:
“You can never lose your light little one. For you are the light, and the light is you. It is thanks to you that everybody around you including me is shining bright. So no matter what happens in the universe continue to smile and shine, and when you shine all the other stars will shine with you.”
The Little Star thought for a moment and smiled. It was true, she had been shining all along.
