Once, in a colorful land of screens and likes, lived a brave little lion named Leo. Every day, he scrolled through shimmering posts of friends laughing and playing. But instead of feeling joyful, Leo felt a little sad about his own adventures.

He saw pictures of Speedy the Squirrel winning races and Gabby the Giraffe having grand tea parties. Leo wondered if his quiet moments, like napping under a sunbeam or chasing butterflies, were exciting enough.

One sunny afternoon, while Leo was quietly watching a ladybug, a gentle voice chirped from above. It was Bella, a wise old owl with spectacles perched on her beak.

“Hello, Leo,” Bella hooted softly. “You seem a little thoughtful today. Is everything alright in your bright world?”
4
Leo sighed and explained his worries about not having as many exciting posts as his friends. Bella listened patiently, then said, “Remember, Leo, social media is just a window, not the whole world.”

“Your true friends cherish your heart, not your likes! The real joy is in the moments you live, not just the ones you share online.”

Leo smiled brighter, a warm feeling spreading through his chest. He thought about his own joyful moments: the tickle of tall grass, the warmth of the sun, and the quiet comfort of sharing a juicy berry with his best friend, Pip the Penguin.

The next day, instead of scrolling, Leo went exploring. He found a hidden patch of wildflowers and spent the whole morning watching busy bees buzz from bloom to bloom.

Later, he drew a picture of the wildflowers and shared it with Pip and Bella, telling them all about the tiny, fuzzy bees. They listened with wide smiles, their eyes sparkling with genuine interest.

From then on, Leo shared his true adventures, big and small, and they sparkled even brighter because they were real, heartfelt moments. And that was the best kind of like of all!
