Once upon a time a crow and a turtle were once good friends who lived near a peaceful pond. One day, the crow invited the turtle to fly with it over the mountains. The turtle, although it could not fly, agreed to come along by hanging onto the crow’s back.
The crow, soaring high in the sky, enjoyed the view, while the turtle clung to the crow’s back, feeling nervous but excited. The crow, seeing how scared the turtle was, said, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep you safe.” As they flew over a busy marketplace, the turtle saw a group of birds laughing at it for being so slow and earthbound.
The turtle felt embarrassed and asked the crow to take it back to the ground. Upon returning, the crow reassured the turtle, “You may not be able to fly, but your strength and patience are something to be proud of.” The turtle realized that being different was not a weakness. This story teaches the value of embracing one’s unique abilities.
