High above the world, in a sky full of shining stars, lived a little star named Luma. Unlike the other stars, Luma didn’t shine as brightly yet but she had a big dream! She wanted to be the brightest star in the sky.
Every night, Luma twinkled as hard as she could, hoping to glow brighter. But no matter how much she tried, she stayed just a small twinkle among the big, glowing stars.
One evening, a wise old comet passed by and saw Luma looking sad. “Why do you look so down, little one?” the comet asked.
“I want to be the brightest star, but I just can’t shine enough,” Luma sighed.
The comet smiled. “Brightness isn’t just about glowing. Sometimes, the smallest star can do the biggest things! Why don’t you find something that makes you shine in your own way?”
Luma thought for a moment. Then, an idea sparked! Instead of trying to shine like the others, she focused on guiding lost travelers home. With her steady little glow, she helped sailors on the sea, birds flying at night, and even a lost cloud drifting far from its family.
Soon, Luma became famous not for being the brightest, but for being the kindest. And to her surprise, the happiness she spread made her glow even brighter than before!
From that day on, Luma understood that the greatest light comes from kindness, not just brightness.
