Raju and the Balloon

Long ago, in a small village, there lived a young boy named Raju. Raju had a passion for making balloons. He had all kinds of colorful balloons that he had made himself.

One day, Raju went to the park with his good friend Ramesh to fly balloons. Raju flew a big balloon and noticed that it was rising higher and higher. He tried to give the balloon more speed, but it still kept rising. Raju and Ramesh tried to tilt their heads back to see the balloon, but it was too high up and they couldn't see it.

Raju felt sad because his beloved balloon had flown away. He walked back home with tears in his eyes. When he told his friends what had happened, Ramesh chuckled and said, "Raju, your balloon has just gone up in the sky. But we can't see it up there."

A new light sparkled in Raju's eyes. He realized that while he didn't have the balloon anymore, his happiness wasn't taken away. He understood that true joy comes from within and can't be stolen. Raju happily started playing with his friends again, knowing that our happiness stays with us, no matter what.
