spared from being unique

Pineapple once asked herself, "Why do I have these ugly whirlpools around my body? Banana has smooth skin. Apple has shiny skin too."

One day, when insects lashed out the Fruit Kingdom, every fruit got alarmed and hastily ran to hide from their predators. Banana moved to a very safe dungeon yet those fierce insects found her and peeled her until death. Apple hovered herself up a tree yet she was reached by the insects flying around and finished her unwaveringly.

Pineapple let herself wander in the Fruit Kingdom. With her fixed mind that eventually she would also be gorged, she just did not care with the presence of the marauders. She saw that Banana and Apple vanished into thin air in just some minutes. She thought she would be next. But surprisingly, she was never a target by the insects. She was shunned because of her skin. She was spared because of her special feature that eschewed every insect near her. The attack of the predators ended with just a few fruits left in the kingdom.

Pineapple rued with what her first notion about her appearance. She realized that she survived from the attack because she was different from the others.

Everyone is distinct. Everyone has a special trait. 

Celebrate being different! Desire to be unique!
