This Little Light of Mine

Lilly, a bright and kind-hearted firefly, lived in a world where many children felt lost and invisible. She saw kids arguing and feeling left out. 'I must help them find their light,' Lilly thought. She knew that everyone had a special light inside them, waiting to shine. But how could she help them see it?

Lilly flew to her first destination, a bustling city. She spotted a boy named Alex sitting alone on a park bench, looking sad. 'Hi, I'm Lilly. Why are you so sad?' she asked. - 'I don't fit in at school,' Alex replied. 'Everyone is different from me.' Lilly knew this was her first big obstacle.

Lilly tried to help Alex by introducing him to other kids, but they just ignored him. Then, she flew to another country and met a girl named Mei who felt lonely because she spoke a different language. - 'No one understands me,' Mei said. Lilly felt her heart sink. She moved on to a village where children excluded a boy named Sam because of his different clothes. Each place brought more challenges.

Lilly began to feel overwhelmed and helpless. - 'Maybe I can’t help them after all,' she whispered to herself. She thought about giving up. It seemed like no matter where she went, the children couldn't see their light. She sat on a leaf, her glow dimming.

Just then, an old owl named Wise appeared. - 'Lilly, don't give up,' Wise said. 'Show them kindness, and they will see their light.' Lilly had an epiphany. She realized she needed to show the children how to be kind to one another. She felt her glow returning. - 'Thank you, Wise,' Lilly said with a smile.

Lilly returned to the children with newfound determination. She organized a game where everyone could participate and share their stories. Alex, Mei, and Sam all joined in and, for the first time, felt included. They laughed and played together. - 'I see it now, Lilly!' Alex exclaimed. - 'Our light is kindness,' Mei added. With their lights shining brightly, the children learned to appreciate their differences.
