There was once an old lady who lived on the edge of a quiet village in a small house with creaky floors, faded curtains, and a garden full of weeds and wild flowers. She had no family left, no great savings, just a fireplace that still warmed her bones and a chair that still rocked with the rhythm of her breath. People often wondered how she could be so content. She never complained. She never wished for more. She simply said, "The less I carry, the more room I have for peace." One winter morning, after feeding the birds and sweeping her porch, she found a strange little box at her doorstep. No name, no message, just a plain wooden box with a golden lock. Curious, she took it inside, placed it on the table. It didn't open, but something about it, whispered, "Inside is what you've been waiting for your whole life." She smiled. I've lived my whole life without waiting for anything, but all right, let's see what's inside. She tried to open it. It didn't budge. Days passed. Weeks. Every morning she'd try the box. And every night she'd place it back on the shelf and smile. Still locked. But so is life sometimes. One day the lock suddenly clicked. She gasped, her old fingers trembling. She opened the box slowly, carefully, but inside there was nothing. No gold, no letter, not even dust, just empty wood. She sat in silence. And then she laughed, not out of madness, not out of pain, but from a place so deep. It echoed like music in her empty house, she whispered. All this time, I thought the box would give me something, but it only reminded me that I already have everything I need. She made tea, sat by the fire, watched the snow fall, and placed the empty box beside her favorite cup as a reminder that sometimes the greatest gifts come in silence. She opened the box, expecting treasure, but found peace instead. Happiness isn't in what you get. It's in how gently you hold what you already have. Let's learn some words.
