🌱 "The Seed of Hope

Once upon a time, in a small village surrounded by hills, lived an old farmer named Rafiq. He had a beautiful little garden where he planted fruits, vegetables, and flowers. But one year, the rain didn’t come. The sun burned the land, and the ground cracked with dryness.

Many villagers gave up farming and left in search of better places. But Rafiq stayed.

Every morning, he woke up early, carried two buckets of water from a faraway well, and poured them on one small spot in his garden. It wasn’t enough to save the whole garden, but he chose a single seed to care for — a mango seed.

Months passed. People laughed at him. "Why are you wasting time on one seed?" they asked.

Rafiq smiled and said, "Hope grows with care."

Seasons changed. The rains finally returned. The village turned green again. But in the center of Rafiq’s garden stood a small mango tree — strong, healthy, and already blooming. It was the only tree that survived the drought.

Years later, that tree gave sweet mangoes to many. Children played under its shade. And people remembered the farmer who never gave up on a single seed.

Moral:
“Even in hard times, a little hope, patience, and care can create something beautiful.”
