WILL IT BE THAT WE CAN BE SOLIDARITY?

Matías came from his school with his friend Carlos in the middle of a cloudy
afternoon in which he only wanted to eat a plate of cookies with lots of juice, but his
mother told him not to eat only cookies but also had to eat very well, so he decided Go
to the fridge and look for vegetables and other vegetables. When he finished serving
his plate he approached the table obeying his mother.

Matías was eating quietly when suddenly he saw something move on his plate,
however he did not pay attention and continued to contemplate the landscape from his
window while he ate, until he noticed that the lettuce moved, then he thought of ghost
and looked everywhere with fear . Matias retired and very focused, he continued to
look at the plate until he looked at the plate and thought again about good things and
the kind of solidarity that the teacher had taught him in class.

Suddenly Matias saw the dish move again and in that moment if I observe that it was
nothing reacted with ghosts, they are that there was a small animal enjoying its
lettuce.

There is a worm on my plate! Matias said, gesturing with his hand as if to chase him
away. The worm first looked at the plate, then looked at Matias and then said:

- Glup! It seems I was wrong. This is not a leaf of lettuce.

When he was a little afraid, Matías, who was very curious, came to observe Don
Gusano very well.

- Wow! -he thought- Not only is his colors quite strange and beautiful, but he also has
many little legs. He must be disoriented.

- Disoriented not, just a little blind, -corrected the worm- but in such a low voice that
nobody heard it.

For a moment the little worm stopped its march, stooped its green back and looked at
Matthias with its finite eyes of a lost worm.

They smiled each in their own way. Matías, then, brought a leaf of lettuce, which he
took from the refrigerator with Mama.

He loaded it on her and took her to the garden. Don Gusano felt the breeze and was
happy.

Meanwhile, Matías looked at him amused, laughed while looking at him and the worm
grateful for having shared lettuce looked at him with eyes of love.

Matías called his mother to show him the little worm, but his mother did not
understand what was happening, and they retorted that he left him in the garden that
was an unimportant animal, while Matías reflected on the importance of helping and
being supportive with his friends, so He said "how good it would be if we all helped
others, even if it was not just with lettuce, but helping the elderly pass through the
streets, taking things to Mom when getting out of the car, doing housework. This is
sense of solidarity, Matias said and looked at the worm.

Step by step the worm was lost among the roses with a good bite of lettuce between the
jaws and said thank you friend you are an example of solidarity.

Next time we'll see each other and keep me lettuce without seasoning!
