The Ugly Duckling

Once upon a time, there was a little duckling. This ugly duckling was exceptionally ugly, and nope, wrong answer – it did not grow up and became a beautiful swan. That’s the fairy tale version. Anyway, back to the story. This ugly duckling was kind of unfortunate and lost its way, finding itself among babies swan. Hmm…I really got no idea what young swans are called.

This ugly duckling befriended this baby swan and they were really good friends, at least to this ugly duckling. The baby swan was very nice indeed to this duckling. Yet, somehow there were little, little things that ignite the unwanted feeling. I guess there was this missing link. The ugly duckling could sense the lack of this thing we called belonging. After all it was at this place full of beautiful swans and could not feel small.

That was then, the little ugly duckling finally learnt, no matter how things were, he was always the different one.
