The Sad Little Red Pig and the Lonely Little Girl
A lonely little girl living in a little shack by the mountain side once wanted to have a pet - it does not matter what kind of pet as long as she has one. There is one problem though; the little girl has barely enough to feed herself, certainly not enough to feed a pet. But she wanted a pet with all her heart that she is even willing to give her pet half of whatever food she gets. The little girl patiently waited for her pet to come, day after day, she would spend her waking hours looking out the window hoping, yearning for a pet that may never come.
On the other side of the mountain, a sad little red pig, shunned by others of his kind because of his funny red color cried himself to sleep every night. With no friend to comfort him, he wandered the mountain side and came upon the little girl’s shack. The little red pig wanted to knock but he was afraid. Very afraid. What if whoever lives there would turn him away? He could not face another rejection. He could not face being laughed at again. So he turned away without knocking. Just then, the little girl came to the window and saw the little pig slowly walking away from her door, from her life. She quickly ran outside and called the little pig.
“Little pig, I love your lovely color, will you be my pet? Will you be my friend?”
The little pig could not believe his ears, he could not believe his eyes. Is this a dream? The little pig slowly turned around and walked towards the little girl, “Are you for real?”, asks the little pig, “Do you really want me to be your friend? What are you going to do with an ugly red pig like me? You are better off with another pet, any pet.”
“But it is you I want, you have such a lovely color. Do you know that red is my favorite? And you are my favorite pig. Please stay with me, I am so lonely.”
A little tear fell from the little pig’s eyes and the little girl hugged the little pig, comforting him, and he comforting her. Both found what they were looking for and both knew they belonged to each other. The little girl and the little red pig help each other face each day, it does not matter if they have barely enough to eat, as long as they’re together the bad times turn into good times and suffering is not as unbearable as before. Together they face each problem, together they lived not happily ever after - life after all is not a fairy tale - but as comfortable as possible. They are content, they have each other. Never again will they be lonely, never again will they face problems alone. The little Red Pig and the Little Girl are no longer sad or lonely. They have each other and in their hearts and minds that make up for everything they’ve been through.

Precious story! But more importantly–what a precious little girl! But the pig is plastic???
Hi Billy. Thanks, she is very precious to me and her pig is precious to her. She can’t have a real pig just yet so a plastic one will do for now.
