The Power of Simple Truths

In a busy city that never slept, where lights blinked like tiny stars and voices buzzed like busy bees, lived a young woman named Veda. Everyone around her was running fast

— chasing shiny toys, 

 bright clothes, and 

  loud praises. 

The world said,

 

" Be complicated, be loud, be fancy,Look Stylish/Handsome/Beautiful " 

Because Simple things were forgotten like old Grandma stories.

But Veda saw something different.

She found magic in small things

— a smile that felt like sunshine, 

— a quiet truth whispered like a secret, 

— a kind act given like a gentle hug. 

Her friends laughed at HER, “Why be plain when you can shine like fireworks?”

Years went by, and the fireworks started to fade. Those who chased them got caught in webs of worry and sadness. 

—  Their smiles felt fake, and 

—  their eyes were tired like the night after a long day. 

But Veda’s simple truths like kindness, honesty, and being humble 

— stood strong like a tall tree in a storm.

One cold night, her tired friends came knocking. Their hearts were heavy, full of things they lost — peace, joy, and the feeling of belonging.

Veda smiled softly and said, 

“ Real power is not in having more or being loud.

 It’s in having the courage to be yourself

In that moment, the noisy city seemed to quiet down. 

👉For the first time, they saw the truth. 

Simplicity is not weakness .

It’s like a quiet light that leads us home when the world feels too loud and Complicated

Moral:

Simplicity isn’t about having less—it’s about seeing clearly.

It’s honesty, kindness, and courage wrapped in one. 

When we let go of the extra noise, we find peace and happiness that last longer than any shiny thing.
