THE GAZELLE AND BEAUTY 

There was a gazelle in a lovely forest. The gazelle had golden hair. Her body was thin and looked beautiful. Her eyes were big and attractive. The gazelle lived with her friends – the giraffe, the elephant, and the crow. The gazelle was always proud of her beauty. And, the gazelle criticized her other animal friends in the forest they lived together.

One day, the gazelle met her friends while she was walking around.  Firstly, she came across with the giraffe and began to talk about her beauty and commented on the length of the giraffe’s neck: ‘Your neck is too long, you look so awful.’ The giraffe was offended by her words. And then the gazelle went on walking.

Secondly, the gazelle came across the elephant. And, the gazelle said:  ‘You are so fat. How amazing you fit into this forest! ‘Hereupon, the elephant became sad and began to cry. The gazelle didn’t mind the elephant.

Lastly, while the crow was flying in the sky, the gazelle saw the crow, and began to talk with the crow. The gazelle said: ‘You are the ugliest bird I have ever seen so far. Not only your voice is bad, but also your appearance is very horrible.’ So, the gazelle broke her friend’s heart again.

While the gazelle was returning to her home, suddenly, she smashed against a tree. The gazelle was badly injured and lost her glamorous beauty which was the only thing she had.

The next day, while the gazelle was walking around in the forest, she met her friends- the giraffe, the crow, and the elephant. When they saw the face of the gazelle, they didn’t criticize her injury, and the gazelle took notice of her mistake.
Moral: Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
