🏡 Once Upon a Time in a Quiet Village
In a peaceful village near a deep forest, there lived a tiny lantern named Lumi. Lumi wasn’t as big or bright as the tall streetlights, but every evening, Lumi faithfully lit up the path to the village bakery. The baker appreciated Lumi, but most people barely noticed it.
⛈️ The Stormy Night
One night, a fierce storm hit the village. Thunder boomed, trees swayed, and the power went out. One by one, the tall streetlights flickered and shut down, plunging the village into darkness. People stumbled around, unsure where to go.
But not Lumi.
Despite the strong wind and pouring rain, Lumi continued to glow—small, steady, and brave. It cast a soft light near the bakery’s door.
🧁 A Tiny Light That Made a Big Difference
The baker saw Lumi’s light and rushed to his shop. Using Lumi’s flame, he lit the large lanterns inside the bakery. Soon, the warm glow spread. Villagers saw the light and followed it, finding safety and comfort.
By morning, the storm had passed. The villagers realized that while the big streetlights had failed, it was the small lantern that never gave up that truly helped them.
💡 Moral of the Story
Even the smallest light can guide others in the darkest times.
It’s not about how big or powerful you are — it’s about being consistent, brave, and kind when others need you the most.
