Simon the little StarA Story by wafaA little gift for all our little stars in the world...We love you !!!Simon is a little star; she was born in a beautiful night. She was so innocent, so shining, so cute & so sharp; she was smiling the whole time, feeling happy when moving from one place to another. She spent the day in playing hide & seek between the clouds and also helping other stars. Simon was really beautiful and all stars admire her beauty. Simon knew she was cute and she felt so proud. She moved from one place to another saying “I’m Simon, I’m the beautiful star”; And all stars smile for her and tell her “yeah you are”. Day after day, Simon pride became a sort of arrogance. She was hearing no body but her voice saying “hey I’m Simon the nicest star the sharpest the shiniest” and all stars looked at her astonished, they felt sorry Simon changed. She started screaming “I’m Simon I’m the best who can deny” and all stars felt angry and moved away letting Simon with her echoes spread in the sky. Days after, Simon felt lonely and sad, she lost her friends & her shine was fading away. She felt lost; she was crying sadly lying on a cloud. When suddenly an old wise star came to her and took her tenderly “Simon why are you sad” “Oh aunt I feel terribly sad, I feel lost, all stars hate me, nobody loves me, I lost my shine, I become ugly”. The old star said “ my darling nobody hates you, you are a little star, you changed a lot , you become arrogant and ignore our advices, we felt we lost our little innocent star, never forget this, your inner beauty & your kindness gave you all the shine. Simon couldn’t understand well the last words of the old star, but Simon felt ashamed whispering “I regret it, I didn’t mean to hurt you, I’m sorry I was ignorant, it is a good punishment for me to stay ugly & lonely forever” Hence, the old star interrupted her , raised her head “No Simon, nothing was broken, there will be always a solution, just go to our friends and ask for forgiveness, they all love you and they will forgive you”. Simon thanked warmly the old star, felt encouraged and went to the stars asking for forgiveness. She spent her days in helping other stars; she read for this old star, helped the other one to cross between constellations. She showed the little stars how to flow from one side to another one. When it is quiet and dark, she used to look to this far planet called “the earth”;she spent the nights in looking after the little kids while sleeping, she followed the travelers in their trips, she twinkled when seeing people looking at her and prayed to have more Peace and love on the earth. Then she went to visit Mr. Moon and read for him before he went to bed. One day, while she was teaching kids the stars’ names: capella, vega, Sirius…little stars cheered “wawww Miss Simon, your shine is great you’re so beautiful” Simon looked in the mirror “true she is, she got back her shine, even more”. Now she understood the words of the wise star “your inner beauty gives you all the shine”. Now if you look to the sky, from the window or the car, you will just see a shining star whispering to you “Hey I am Simon the little star”. © 2011 wafaAuthor's Note
