Far far away in the countryside, there lived an ugly looking boy who was abandoned by everyone who knew him , even his parents left him . He travelled the mountains, lakes, deserts to accept *who he was * but wherever he went he wasn’t able to satisfy himself, console himself.
One stormy night the boy was passing through the woods along the country-side road. An old witch who lived there was driven towards him due to his weak soul. The witch agreed to take away the boy’s Ugliness, sadness, nightmares and all other emotions that troubled him, the boy became emotionless.
Years passed by, days passed by and the boy grew into a man.
A stormy night, the witch appeared again and returned the boy all his troubles. The boy was unable to handle all the emotions and troubles and rushed to the witch in the woods, the witch denied to help the boy this time and said ;
“ YOU SHOULD HAVE HANDLED YOUR TROUBLES YOURSELF RATHER THAN LEANING ON SOMEONE, YOU SHOULD HAVE TRUSTED YOURSELF, YOU SHOULD HAVE GIVEN YOURSELF ONE MORE CHANCE RATHER THAN SEEKING SOMEONE OR SOMETHING TO CONSOLE YOU. TIME NEVER STOPS BUT LEARNING AND HANDLING YOURSELF IS ALL UPON YOU.”
