🌙 The Little Star Who Was Afraid of the Dark

Once upon a time, high up in the sky, there was a tiny star named Luma.
Luma was smaller than the other stars, and she had one big problem—
she was afraid of the dark!

Every evening, when the Sun went to sleep and the sky turned black, Luma closed her little eyes tightly.
She thought, “What if I shine and no one sees me? What if the dark swallows me?”

The other stars twinkled happily, but Luma hid her glow.

One night, a wise Moon noticed her.
“Why are you hiding, little one?” asked the Moon gently.

“I’m scared of the dark,” whispered Luma. “It feels so big and empty.”

The Moon smiled.
“But Luma, without the dark, no one would see your light. The darker the sky, the brighter you shine.”

Just then, far below on Earth, a little boy looked out of his window.
He pointed up and said, “Look, Mom! That tiny star is shining just for me.”

Luma’s heart filled with joy.
She realized her light could make someone happy, even in the darkest night.

From that day on, she never hid again.
She twinkled bravely, knowing that even the smallest star can brighten someone’s world.

Moral of the Story

No matter how small you feel, your light can make a big difference.
