The hippo couldn't understand why he was born as a hippopotamus.
He was sad.
He tried to paint stripes on his body, to look like zebras.
It wasn't really successful, in fact he was laughed at.
Nextly later, still hadn't given up,
He tried to paint spots on his body, to look like leopards instead.
Again, he was not successful, and was being ridiculed for his weird result.
At last......the hippo finally come to acceptance.
He accepted his condition of being a hippo.
As a result,
The hippo was happy.
The End.

It's the story of the happy hippo.
Moral of the story is....
Accept.
Only through acceptrance, you will be happy.
Just like the happy hippo.
In our life, we have many similar situation of sadness and frustration, and we tried to paint all sorts of stripes and spots. We tried very hard to become zebras and leopards.
However, this will only make us unhappy, and lead to more frustration.
We should look no further on how to achieve happiness. As the example has shown us,
It is through...
Acceptance.

No la..the story ends with Hippo being hired to star in a Local TV show called "Hippo and Friends " and "Kidzercise".
Hippo made loads of money and was glad to remain a Hippotamus!
