Day 19: The Lightest

What does

The Christmas Ball

at the top of the tree possess that

the Little Christmas Ball beneath it doesn't?

THE LIGHT!

The Little Christmas Ball

is so close to the top,

yet it just cant seem to shine.

It is trying and striving.

It did everything right.

It came out of its box.

It was hung on the tree

year after year.

This year it even got a top position, but it still doesn't shine.

"Maybe if someone will move me closer to the top.

Maybe if I try harder I will shine", thinks

The Little Christmas Ball,

as it continues to wait in its striving.
