"I may not be the fastest, strongest, or smartest. But I can use what I have to do good. And that's good enough."
It's not what you have but what you do with what you have that matters.
Sometimes children can be anxious about the fact that they are not the fastest, strongest, or smartest. But the truth is only one person can ever be the fastest; the rest are not. Despite knowing that only one person can ever be the fastest, children can sometimes feel less worthy because that one person isn't them. This story teaches that being the best at something is not important if those talents are not used for good; and that people without such talents are still valuable because they still have the ability to be good.
This is an expression of the Stoic concept that 'Virtue is the only good'
