Yellowin was a notorious princess.

She hates to study, and the laziest girl in the world.

Mr. and Mrs. Grey loved her a lot.

In spite of telling her repeatedly, she never focused on learning.

Mr. and Mrs. Grey had to shift their home repeatedly for various reasons,

and Mrs. Grey got conceived this time.

 

They were building their home; Yellowin came back, from her self-learning session.

There was a separate room for her. She enjoyed the solitude.

 

Mr. Grey comforted his wife, and he left for the work.

Mrs. Grey and Yellowin had their dinner,

yet there was no sign of Mr. Grey returning home.

 

It was raining heavily, Mrs. Grey was feeling cold, and Yellowin tried to make her comfortable.

The rain was splattering, all over their house with strong winds.

As their new home was falling apart, Yellowin decided to get some comfort for Mrs. Grey.

 

In spite of Mrs. Grey's opposing, Yellowin left.

She thought of finding comfort, for Mrs. Grey while searching it she lost the track to home.

She took the shelter, under a tree and she heard scattered noise flashing lights.

 She was exhausted, and she fell dormant.

 

Suddenly she woke up, and found some comforts; she took them and flew back to her place.

Their house was gone; there was no sign of Mrs. Grey’s family. Yellowin was flying around and was calling out her mother’s name.

 

She met her uncle, on the way, and he took her to his home.

Days passed, without any information on Yellowin’s family,

Her uncle couldn’t support her anymore, and he had to let Yellowin out.

 

All of a sudden Yellowin was on her own. She had to find the shelter of her own, she was able to take shelter, but soon she found out that it’s not easy to live with the wild.

 

Yellowin, a two years old teenager.

She observed the world and honed her listening and eyesight.

She quickly got adapted to the wild woods.

 

Though Yellowin was a teenager, still she had to fight the predators.

Every day was a fight for her survival, be it food or life.

 

There were wild heroes, who tried to impress her with fragrance, Yellowin was determined to live alone as her mission was to find her family. A lazy girl got turned into a warrior in a demanding situation.

She fought the wild and built a nest on her own.

Life and challenges taught her a lesson on survival. She adopted other orphan kids in her home irrespective of their origin.

She gave them the survival lessons.

 

Every day she flies to her previous home, hoping to see her parents and unborn sibling.

She sees a concrete jungle and humans with comforts.

 

Her scream goes in vain, by the closed glass window.

Be it a Yellowin or Brown they deserve a life and family.

One needs to design technology, be it mobile or construction that is nature-friendly.

 

With the advance of society, many birds have lost their home, food due to deforestation and change in flora and fauna. The basic comforts of trees and sticks lost with technology. The harmful waves have disturbed their migration path.

When we are affecting the ecosystem, we are heading towards our final destination.

We need to build technology where every life can survive.

Comforts need to be sacrificed by giving preference to other life.

 

Yellowin relied on self-belief, and she survived alone in the wild forest. Though initially, she was resisting to learn, she learnt to fly and didn’t rely on others.

Yellowin had wings for survival.

 

There are many such Yellowin and other kids of various origins.

When it comes to kids, education, and self-belief are their wings.

Give the kids the wings, be it any gender, it helps them to soar to greater heights.
