Leo felt embarrassed and scared. Without his roar, he worried that the animals wouldn’t respect him anymore. He tried roaring again and again, but it was no use. The sound was gone.
Feeling lost, Leo wandered the savannah, unsure of what to do. Along the way, he met a wise old elephant named Ella. She could see that Leo was troubled and asked what was wrong.
“I’ve lost my roar,” Leo said sadly. “Without it, I’m not sure I can still be king.”
Ella smiled and said, “Leo, being a leader isn’t just about having a loud voice. It’s about guiding others, helping them, and making wise decisions. You’re still the same strong lion, with or without your roar.”
Leo thought about Ella’s words. He realized that he had been focusing too much on his roar and not enough on what really made him a leader – his actions and the way he cared for his kingdom.
So, Leo returned to his pride and began leading in a new way. He helped the younger lions learn to hunt, made sure the animals had enough water, and resolved conflicts peacefully. Even without his roar, the animals respected and followed him, maybe even more than before.
After a while, Leo’s roar came back. But this time, he knew that true leadership wasn’t just about making noise – it was about making a difference.
The lesson: Sometimes, we lose something we think is important, but it helps us discover our real strengths. Like Leo, true leaders lead with their hearts, not just their voices.
