NIGHT TURNED INTO DAY
Many years ago when animals could talk to each other, there was a village
that had been darkened by an evil man. He had taken the daylight because he
was jealous of the prosperity and love of others by the people. The people
were trying to find a way to get the daylight back. The Mighty Eagle said,
"I will go and make a hole in the sky so that Grandmother Sun can shine through
and bring her warmth for the land and for us the people so that we won't be
cold. The Mighty Eagle flew to the sky but couldn't make a hole in the darkness.He
tried again and again, and finally made a hole just big enough for him to
get through. When he entered the sky he saw his dear friend Little Star, and
told him the problems the people in the village were having. "Could you please
Dear Little Star help me to bring Grandmother Sun back to the people?" Little
Star said, "sure my brother, but you will need more light than I can give.
I am bright but not that bright! We need a much larger hole in the sky so
that Grandmother Sun can cast her light on me and I can cast it upon my friend
The Great White Swan. Once the Mighty Eagle had made the hole larger, the
Swan was just able to just squeeze through. And as Grandmother Sun cast her
light on the Little Star, he cast his light on the Swan, who spread her wings
and there was daylight again in the valley below. Now that there was light
again the Mighty Eagle told the people to pack up all of their belongings,
so that he could lead them into the valley of light and so that they could
walk in a path of light instead of a path of darkness.
