In a peaceful village lived a wealthy man named Samuel. He had vast lands, many cattle, and chests full of gold. However, Samuel was very stingy. He believed that wealth was only meant to be guarded and kept safe in his vault.
In the same village lived a humble farmer named David. David had very little, but he had a heart full of kindness. One year, a terrible drought hit the village. The crops withered, and the villagers began to struggle for food. Samuel locked his granaries tightly, fearing that if he shared, he would become poor.
David, despite having very little grain left, decided to share what he had with the hungry children and elderly neighbors. He believed that sharing brought more joy than hoarding.
Soon, a sickness spread through the village. Because the people were weak from hunger, the illness became very serious. David used his small savings to buy medicines and food for those who were suffering. His small act of generosity acted like a life-saving medicine for the entire community. Seeing this, Samuel realized his mistake. He understood that wealth is not just about numbers in a bank; it is like a medicinal tree that heals the world when held by a generous hand.
