The Firefly.
In a field a young firefly asks his dad: 'Dad, do i glow?'
To this the father replied: 'I can't really tell, if you want me to see your light then you have to go in the dark.'
The little firefly then proceeded into the darkness and started to shine alone in the dark and, as the father had said, the little firefly's light could be seen by everyone.
The little firefly, alone in the dark after having shone, realised that it was now surrounded by darkness. It panics, then cries: 'dad! dad! why did you abandon me?'
The father replies: 'I didn't abandon you, you were the one that wanted to show me how much you could shine.'
The moral of this story:
It is whilst facing uncertainty, cowardise, stupidity, and barbarism, that we truely get back on our feet. Who would notice a wise man in a world where everything went well?
