Once upon a time, in a forest, on the outskirts of a big city, in a small country, a Ladybug. The ladybug met a firefly. The firefly was beautiful, cheerful, kind and loving and the ladybug fell in love with fireflies. But the Firefly had fallen in love the most, the Ladybug being a sweet girl, small, beautiful, red and round… They fell in love, they loved each other and decided to stay together forever…
Only the forest was big and there were a lot of obstacles, which for others seemed insignificant, but which were too great for the little Ladybug.

The ladybug kept tripping over a twig or a pebble. Moreover, curious by nature, they kept looking, either to the left or to the right, and they kept getting lost in each other.
And then, the Ladybug and the Firefly decided to hold hands all the time, so that nothing could separate them.

They walked together through the forest and were very happy… Everything until one day when the Ladybug disappeared.
The firefly was destroyed. She no longer knew if he let go of her hand or if she let go of his hand. The firefly, alone and sad, looked for Ladybug under every leaf, under every branch, but did not find it. The firefly was getting sadder and sadder, and it seemed to him that the forest had no taste, no meaning, no charm.
And as the Firefly was walking very sadly, he met an Ant.
The firefly told the Ant what had happened to him, and the Ant told him:
"Firefly, maybe if you have a bright, loud glow, Ladybug would see you, no matter how far away, and come back to you.
" "You know you're right,
" said the Firefly. I was so sad that I forgot to shine!
Morality
Most of the time, sadness and panic overwhelm us to such an extent that we forget how valuable we are, we no longer allow ourselves to shine, that when we had reasons to do so. If we no longer have external valorization, if our need to be useful is not satisfied, we consider ourselves worthless, although we are useful, good, beautiful, especially through what we are.

Sometimes, the pain caused by failures, by failures, makes us forget that we know and can shine. We sank into apathy, victimized ourselves, and forgot to shine.
