Proudy Green Insect – Lucy


Lucy was a Green Insect. She was very beautiful. Everybody in her area used to adore her. She had a slim body, beautiful eyes, adorable lips. She used to walk like a cat using her high heel sandals. She used to get ready daily using all branded cosmetics to look more and more beautiful.


Every day at 10AM, all animals and insects of that area used to gather near Lucy's home to see her. Day by day she became Proudy. The animals and insects of that area used to offer her Food, Cloth etc.,

She stopped flying because of this. Started spending much time in decorating herself, watching movies to learn new styles and eating.

Months rolled out, she had a fixed schedule: Getting up at 8, get ready by 10, come out of home for 10 minutes, gather the items given by her fans, go inside ear and rest.

After some days, she became such lazy that, she did not want to come out for 10 minutes also. She started thinking of an alternate way for that, but there was no alternative as she wanted food every day: because of this, she used to show up herself.

This practice made her grow fat. She never cared about it, because animals and insects were crazy about her.

Meantime a Parrot named Pinky came to that area, she was so adorable that no body could take off their eyes from her.

Slowly Slowly the crowd started decreasing near Lucy's home and started building up at Pinky's nest.

Lucy was jealous of Pinky, she started making strategies to kick Pinky out of the area. She called her fan Monkey and told to destroy Pinky's nest.

Monkey destroyed Pinky's nest. Pinky was aware of the jealousy nature of Lucy, she also knew that Lucy destroyed her nest. Every body gathered near Pinky's nest and were discussing about the culprit, but Pinky did not utter a word.


Everyone offered her food and shelter, but she did not accept anything from anyone. She told: “ I have energy and I will build my nest again, If I depend on you I will become lazy and fat ”. She thanked them for being so kind and she also told the that she will definitely ask for their help if required.

Soon Pinky started teaching the animals and insects around Yoga and How to have positive approach in life?

Everyone stopped going to Lucy's home and started learning positive things from Pinky. Lucy had to search for food now, she could not fly because of her obese body. She used to be tired if she fly for one minute also.

She started making plans – she thought that she will dance with animals and insects for sometime and ask for food as a charge.

She put advertisements everywhere regarding the same. It stated “ Golden opportunity to dance with Lucy – The Beauty”.

People gathered around Lucy's home to see and perform with her. Lucy came out, she was dressed beautifully. She played music and started dancing: but she could not dance because of her overweight. All animals stated throwing twigs at her. She heard may speaking “ We should go to Pinky and learn Yoga to be fit. Else we will also become like Lucy: fat and useless”. 
 
Lucy bursted into tears realizing her mistake. Meanwhile Pinky came to Lucy and consoled her. Pinky told Lucy that you are very good at heart, because of the circumstanced and laziness you have become like this.It is not late even now you can become beautiful as before.

Lucy hugged pinky and apologized her for being so rude to her.

Pinky invited her to Yoga classes as the sign of acceptance of her apology.

Lucy joined Yoga classes, she was not at all lazy now, she started loosing weight day by day and beautiful before.

She took a oath that: she will never receive any think from anyone, instead she will search for her own food and for reform her.
