once upon a time...
a li'l girl lived in a coastal village... she led a very difficult life, because when all the children went to school and played together, she had to work at home for the people who were taking care of her.she did all the work throughout the day without a complaint....she never even spoke a word to anyone, let alone show any emotions. no matter how much she was bullied and forced to work she was always stern and cold and never broke down.... however, every evening after completing all the work she would sit by the sea side where no one could see her and cry out loud... the sea was the only witness to her rolling tears.... every now and then the sea would try to reach out to the girl to comfort her and make her realise that the sea was there for her....but she was sitting too far away that it couldn't reach her...but it never gave up...the sea kept on trying..all it wanted was to see her smile...but it couldnt touch her....one evening the sea rose up and made its biggest attempt to reach her... it failed to reach the girl as usual.. but you know what..?the girl did notice... she was so amazed by the beautiful ebb and tide that she started into the water and played with the waves and shrieked with joy.
the sea was amazed at its ability to reach out to people this way that from then on the sea keeps all the people who come to visit, happy through the beautiful display of waves....
