There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair. He had all colors of balloons ,including red, yellow , blue and green. Whenever business was slow ,he would release a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children saw it go up, they all wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon and his sales would go up again. He continued this process all day . One morning ,he felt someone tugging at his jacket. He turned around and saw a little boy who asked,‘‘If you release a black balloon ,would that also fly? Moved by the boy’s concern , the man replied with empathy, “son, it is not the color of the balloon , it is what is inside you that makes you go up.”
