Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel. All believed that they were the most important.

“Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. Without me, all animals would die. ” Green said.

“You only think about the earth,” Blue interrupted, “ but consider the sky and the sea. The sky gives space, peace and serenity. Without my peace, you would all be nothing. ”

Yellow shouted, “ You are all so serious. I bring laughter and warmth into the world. Without me there would be no fun. ”

Orange started next , “ I am the color of health and strength. My beauty is so striking that no one gives another thought to any of you. ”

Red could stand it no longer, he shouted out, “ I am the ruler of all of you. I am the color of danger and of bravery. Without me, the earth would be an empty as the moon. ”

Purple rose up to his full height. He was very tall and spoke with great pomp(炫耀), “I am the color of loyalty(忠诚) and power. I am the sign of authority(权利) and wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey. ”

Finally Indigo(靛蓝) spoke, much more quietly than all the others, “ I represent thought and reflection(反思). You need me for balance and contrast(对比). ”

Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a flash of lightning. Rain started to pour down and speak “ You should stretch across the sky in a great bow of color. Remember to appreciate one another. Only the rainbow is the most beautiful. ”
