In the quiet corner of a small village, there lived an old man named George. He was known for his love of gardening and his ability to grow the most beautiful flowers in the region. Every morning, as the sun peeked over the horizon, George would step into his garden with a gentle smile. His hands, though wrinkled with age, moved with precision among the vibrant blooms.

One day, a young boy named Tom visited George’s garden. Tom was curious about everything, especially how George managed to make his flowers so stunning. “How do you make them grow like this?” Tom asked, his eyes wide with wonder.

George chuckled softly. “It’s not just about the soil or the water,” he replied. “It’s about patience and care. Each flower needs time to bloom, just like people need time to learn and grow.”

Tom thought about this for a moment. As he left that afternoon, he carried a tiny seed in his pocket. Over the weeks, he planted it in his own backyard, watering it every day and watching it slowly sprout. Years later, Tom had his own flourishing garden, inspired by the wisdom of George.

And so, the lesson of patience and care continued to spread through the village, one flower at a time.
