Once upon a time there lived a young girl named Sunburst in a small village. Sunburst was very close to the sun and the sun’s warmth made her feel happy and safe. Every day, Sunburst would go out and play in the sun’s rays and enjoy its warmth.
One day, a storm was coming and the clouds were dark and thick. Sunburst’s father warned her not to go out into the sun, but Sunburst wanted to play, so she ignored her father’s warning and headed out into the sun.
The sun’s rays were so bright and powerful that Sunburst could not help but feel the warmth and beauty of its rays. She was captivated by its beauty and she eventually got lost in the sun’s brilliance. As the storm rolled in and the clouds grew thicker, Sunburst found herself unable to make it home safely.
Sunburst knew she had to find her way back so she decided to follow the sun’s rays and make her way back home. She followed the rays for what seemed like hours but eventually, she found a clearing in the forest. It was here that she found a beautiful meadow filled with golden sunflowers.
Sunburst was in awe of the beauty of the meadow and she decided to take a moment to admire its beauty. As she was taking in the sight, she heard a voice from behind her. It was the voice of the sun, who was asking her why she was in the forest on such a stormy day.
At first, Sunburst was scared, but then she remembered the warmth and comfort that the sun had given her and she replied, “I just wanted to be out in the sun’s warmth, even if it was just for a few minutes.”
The sun was pleased by Sunburst’s response and it decided to reward her with a gift. The sun reached down and plucked a sunflower from the meadow and gave it to Sunburst.
Sunburst was so happy and grateful for the sunflower, she thanked the sun and began to make her way back home. As she made her way home, Sunburst couldn’t help but think about how powerful the sun’s rays were, and how even in a storm, the sun can still bring warmth and light.
The moral of the story is that even in difficult situations, staying optimistic and hopeful can bring us warmth and light. Sunburst’s story teaches us to never give up, even when the storm clouds arrive.
