little story
Long long ago, there lived a deer in the forest, beautiful and kind. But she was not welcomed by her families and 'friends', because she had only one strange horn on top of her head. Day after day, she did the hardest work in the cold wind, however, the most sad for her, is not the weather, but the unkind jokes from the around: 'Hey, our little piti (her name)! what's that on earth on your head? Two horns together?' Although she felt sad and sometimes even despaired, she would answer politely with a smile: 'I also don't know what it is, when I was born, it was there like that'.
One day, when she was collecting strawbarries in the forest, she met a bird, depressed and hurt.
Piti: What's the matter? You are all right?
Lion (name of the bird): O.K. But my wings need dressing...
But Lion was lying on the highest branch of the tree, neigher of them knew how to help him down. After dozens of times trying, something occured to Pity, 'Sit on the top of my horn, and I will kneel, then you can be back to the ground.' According to the illustration, Lion 'landed' successfully at last.
Piti: I have never seen a bird hurt his wing, what's wrong with you? Have you met some wild animal?
Lion: Yes, much 'wilder' than I can imagine.
Lion became the first friend indeed Piti made. And that morning became the most wonderful time Piti had never met during her life.
After that, Piti went back to the life as former, and as usual, facing the jokes unkind and facing the 'friends' unkind. Until one day Lion appeared again, totally different from what he met her for the first time.
Lion: Do you remember me?
Piti: You-are-the-king-of-the-forest.
Yes, in fact, the bird named Lion is a lion.
Lion: I am the king, but I did envy the birds, because they can fly. The morning you met me in the forest is the first time I flew, yes, my greed of the ability of flying made my families so angry, so they asked a wizard if he could let me feel the feeling of flying. But after I can fly, I found that at the same time, I lost my power and my golden hair, what's worse, I don't like the look of a bird. Piti, I'm here today to tell you that everyone has his shortcoming, but for you long horn, I didn't know how to land at all. Be confident, you are never inferior to others.
