In the warm heart of the jungle, where the sun kisses the ground, lives a young lion named Leo. His mane was just starting to grow, and his eyes sparkled like the stars above. Every day, he played with his friends, who roared and wrestled in the soft grass.
The cubs would chase each other, tumbling down small hills and hiding behind the big, green bushes. Leo was the fastest of them all, and often he’d find himself waiting for the others to catch up, his chest rising and falling as he laughed.
One sunny afternoon, while the others were practicing their mightiest roars – RAWR, RAWR, RAWR – Leo sat quietly by a gentle stream. He watched the fish swimming against the current and wondered what it would be like to explore the world beyond the jungle.
Suddenly, a butterfly with big, colorful wings landed on Leo's paw. He smiled and whispered to it, ‘Do you know what's out there, beyond the tree line where the sky touches the earth?’ The butterfly fluttered its wings but had no answer.
As the sun began to set and the sky turned orange and pink, Leo's friends called him over. ‘Come on, Leo! Let's see who can jump the highest!’ But Leo was still thinking about the world outside and the adventures waiting for him there.
The other cubs kept playing, their laughs echoing through the trees, but Leo walked to the top of a small hill. As he looked at the horizon, he made a wish to one day go on an adventure and find his big purpose.
That night, under the twinkling stars, Leo fell asleep surrounded by his friends. In his dreams, he was braver and stronger, ready to explore new places. And though he loved his friends dearly, he knew his heart was set on grand adventures.
