Once upon a time... There once lived a moth and a butterfly. They hatched on the same plant as eggs, hatched on the same leaf as caterpillars, and hung from the same branch as cocoons. As they grew, the moth couldn't help but notice how vibrant and lovely the butterfly looked under the beam of the sun. It became curious as to how the butterfly grew into such a beauty. That same curiosity led to awe. The moth couldn't help but imitate the butterfly's every move—to the point that it forgot how to embrace its own nature. However, that awe sprouted into envy and self-doubt. At night, he couldn't help the urge to roam around. Then, other moths led him to realize his own beauty. "Beauty is in the eye of its beholder". "I am the way I am because I was born this way, and that is already beautiful alone."

Her name was Bella. Mia wanted to be friends, so she skipped over and said, “Hi! Would you like to play with me?” But just then, a boy named Max, who liked to tease others, shouted, “Why would anyone want to play with you, Mia? You’re too nice! No one likes a goody-goody!” Mia felt a little sad, but instead of being mean back to Max, she took a deep breath and smiled. “That’s okay, Max! I think being nice is fun! Would you like to join us, too?” Max was surprised. Nobody had ever responded to him like that before. Mia’s kindness made him pause. He didn’t know what to say. Bella looked at Mia and then at Max. “I think being kind is really cool! Let’s all play together!” she said, her eyes shining. Mia led them in a game of tag, and soon everyone was laughing and having fun. Even Max couldn’t help but smile as he ran around with Mia and Bella. After a while, Max felt something different in his heart. He realized he didn’t want to be mean anymore. “I’m sorry for teasing you, Mia. I guess being kind is much better,” he said, looking down at his shoes. Mia beamed. “Thank you, Max! It’s always nice to be kind to each other. It makes us all feel good!” From that day on, Mia, Bella, and even Max became great friends. They played together every day, spreading kindness all around the park. And whenever someone felt sad or alone, Mia was always ready with a hug and a smile, reminding everyone that kindness is the best gift of all. The end.
