很久以前，有一粒小水滴聽東海爺爺講有關東海的故事。它知道東海用千里之遙，不能形容海的遼闊，用千仞之高，不足以形容海的深度。它非常羨慕東海。
　　于是，它問東海爺爺：“東海爺爺，為什么東海那么遼闊還那么深呢？”東海爺爺告訴它：“我以前也是一粒小水滴，我和許多伙伴們日夜不停地奔流，小伙伴匯集融合在一起，就成了一條小溪，但我們沒有停止腳步，繼續日夜不停的地向前奔流，然后又成了江河，最后許多江河匯集在一起，就成了大海，形成了現在的東海。”小水滴又問：“我們真的有那么大的力量嗎？可以變成小溪，變成江河，變成大海嗎？”東海爺爺回答道：“當然可以啦！不積小流無以成江河，所以你們都可以成為大海的。還有，成海以后，不要忘記小水滴的存在，更不要輕視小水滴的力量，它可是我們生命的源泉啊！沒有它，就沒有我們。”
　　小水滴記住了東海爺爺的話，最后終于成為了著名的南海。
