There was once a little froggie, Jane who lived in the urban area of the pond. She was always feeling awkward, without a sense of belonging. Most of the time, she would appear to have many others around her and they appeared to adore her talent and loved the way she held her head high. But she never made it a point to tell the rest, about how lost she felt without a solid ground below her feet. It was definitely difficult for anyone to understand, no one was ever in her "shoe".
For years, she went through life by keeping herself busy. For Jane, the smallest time she had with nothing to do, it only made her remember how lucky other people around her were, with family of their own.
One fine day, Jane decided to hop along the rainbow till she reached the end of the rainbow, which was famous for its pot of gold. For her, at least, till she finds the tail of the rainbow, she won't feel hurt or depressed, nor will loneliness eat her soul. Jane hopped for as long as she could, stopping at the end of each day, to look back at how far she had come...leaving behind all the sad moments and unhappiness she's been through all her life. Years passed, the rest back at the pond wondered if she would ever return. Jane knew that at the end of the rainbow was no pot of gold. It was just another excuse for her to keep going and never turn back. For every turn she made, there were just memories of how self-consumed the world around her was, no one to ever think how she actually felt and what she truly wanted.
These small things that matter ... but often taken for granted!
