Once upon a time, in a sunny garden, a little seed lay in the soil, feeling small and scared. "I wish I were big and strong like the tall tree nearby," it whispered.
The Big Tree heard the little seed and smiled kindly. "Don’t worry, little one. I’ll share my shade and drop some water from my leaves when it rains."
Days passed. The Big Tree kept protecting the little seed from the hot sun and strong winds. Slowly, the little seed began to grow—first a sprout, then a tiny plant.
One day, a strong wind blew through the garden. The Big Tree shielded the small plant with its wide branches.
"You’re growing well," said the Big Tree proudly. "One day, you’ll help others too."
Years later, the small plant became a strong tree. When a new seed landed nearby, the young tree smiled and said, “Don’t worry, little one. I’ll take care of you.”
*Moral: Kindness helps others grow—and one day, they will pass it on.*
