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.
