Once, long ago, a new star was born in the sky. Because it was a new star it was very small. Being small, the star was frightened of the large, dark night.
The other stars laughed and mocked it: "Afraid of the dark!" "Stars shine in the dark!" "Stars love the dark!"
The small star asked, "What is 'love'?"
"Love?" "Love?" "Love?" The stars could not explain.
One old star, however, so old its light was dimming, said, " 'Love' is shining bravely in the dark to give light. That is the purpose of stars."
