NAME:
Once upon a time there was a school of fish in a beautiful lotus pond. They swam and played all kinds of games, happy in their pond. But the biggest among them thought he was more important than all the other little fish!
- There is! - he said. – This pond is too small for me! I need to stretch my fins!
One fine day, quite tired of his constant complaint, a little fish told him:
– If our pond is too small for you, why don't you go swimming in the big river?
The big fish thought that was a very good idea and that day swam with the fast current and entered the big river. The river had nothing to do with the lagoon. The water was dark and extremely cold. The other fish were very large and fed all day on smaller fish. They didn't play anything! They chased and pushed the fish from the pond until it felt very small. He started to miss the pond and all the fish.
That same night, he returned to the beautiful little lotus pond and never thought that anything big was better!
