A DIFFERENT PEACOCK
by Gloria Tesalonika A (X mipa 2)
Once in a
forest, there was a peacock that was unique in general and had a distinctive
attraction that made him different. On a clear day, an elephant strolling in
the forest and then noticed a peacock alongside a lake. He came to the peacock
and said,
"Your feathers are so beautiful, if I
had your uniqueness I would have become a star here."
The peacock
who listens to the elephant's words replied, "What is unique about me is that I am just a peacock born
different than the rest."
Then a lion
not far from the two of them, he heard the conversation and responded to the
peacock's answer he said,
"Don't you realize that what you
think is different is overtaking all the animals in here."
Then the
peacock goes silent for a moment, why the peacock is so beloved when it is so
different from the peacock in general. Then he said to the lion,
"You don't know, I get insulted a lot
by other animals because my fur is different from normal peacocks. I regret
that I was born an albino peacock. "The peacock said to the lion.
Elephants
and lions are silent when the peacock says that, little did he know that
peacock had been sorry for being born that way. The elephant feels sorry for
the peacock, he goes over to the peacock and says,
"Peacocks you know, many of the
peacocks out there envy your with different furry beauty, it's more beautiful
than the common peacock, and it's one of the unique things that you have."
said the elephant.
After all,
the peacock froze and he could not believe that what had become less of himself
had become an attraction to others, and even other animals envied him because
the kind of this peacock is rarely encountered. The lion approached the peacock
who was speechless and answered,
"The
peacock that you think you lack in yourself has become an attraction to other
animals, you should be proud of this and not regret. So now you can neither
regret nor sad being born this way because you are special in your own
way." said the lion.
