Black Balloon
Born 1993, F, from U.p., IndiaRoss was a little poor boy who lived in one of the slum areas of England. One day he saw a group of children surrounding a man who was having a bunch of balloons...everyone was purchasing the balloon of their favourite colours, someone took blue, someone took red and someone took pink...standing at a distance little Ross looked at a black balloon and wondered why among all the children present there no one demanded the black balloon...He thought he is like a black balloon who is not good enough to be liked or apreciated by others...he felt sad, he had no money to buy it but he went near the man and asked..Sir..nobody took it, is this balloon that bad? will it not go up if left? Man smiled, took out a black balloon from his pocket...filled gas in it from the container and left it in the air...balloon went up in the sky...Ross smiled...The man said, " Dear, it is not the colour outside but the air inside that lifts the balloon. In the same way it is not the outer appearance but the goodness of the soul that lifts us to success..."
