One night,
the Moon was shining quietly in the sky. From high above, she suddenly started
noticing that the people on Earth looked very colourful and different from each
other. She realised that this was because they all wore beautiful clothes!
She thought,
‘0, I wish I could also have a nice cloak made from the colours of the
rainbow!’
As morning
drew near, the Sun came up. It was time for the Moon to sleep. But, she went to
her Mother and said, “Dear Mother, people look beautiful in colourful clothes.
How I wish to have a colourful cloak for myself, too! Will you please make
one for me?”
The Moon’s
Mother smiled at her and said, “My dear child, I would love to make a cloak for
you but how can I do so? Right now you have a new body but soon you will start
increasing in size and finally, become bigger. Because of your changing size,
you will not fit into anything I make for you.”
The Moon,
sadly, agreed with her Mother. She, then, went to bed till the arrival of
night.
It is always
good to think about our wishes from a practical point of view.
