The Story of the Hummingbird

One day a terrible fire broke out in a forest - a huge woodlands was suddenly engulfed by a raging wild fire. Frightened, all the animals fled their homes and ran out of the forest. As they came to the edge of a stream they stopped to watch the fire and they were feeling very discouraged and powerless. They were all frightened and in awe at the destruction of their homes. Every one of them thought there was nothing they could do about the fire, except for one little hummingbird. This particular hummingbird decided it would do something. It swooped into the stream and picked up a few drops of water and went into the forest and put them on the fire. Then it went back to the stream and did it again, and it kept going back, again and again and again. All the other animals watched in disbelief; some tried to discourage the hummingbird with comments like, "Don't bother, it is too much, you are too little, your wings will burn, your beak is too tiny, it’s only a drop, you can't put out this fire." And as the animals stood around disparaging the little bird’s efforts, the bird noticed how hopeless and forlorn they looked. Then one of the animals shouted out and challenged the hummingbird in a mocking voice, "What do you think you are doing?" And the hummingbird, without wasting time or losing a beat, looked back and said, "I am doing all that I can." before returning to the stream again.

This show of perseverance and determination was noticed by the great spirit, who decided to show favor in the little hummingbird, bringing forth a great rain. The rain quenched the flames and smothered the fire. From the ash a brilliant rainbow emerged, engulfing the hummingbird in color. When the hummingbird emerged from the rainbow it emerged as bright and colorful as the rainbow itself. Forever bringing brilliant colors to all hummingbirds simply by not giving up and doing all that it could.
