Tara loved gardening.
One day, her teacher gave every child a tiny tomato seed to grow at home.
Tara was very excited.
She planted the seed, watered it, and checked it again in the evening.
But nothing happened.
The next morning, she looked again.
Still nothing.
“Is my seed broken?” she wondered sadly.
Her grandmother saw her worried face and said,
“Good things take time, Tara. Plants grow slowly. Patience is the water of the heart.”
So Tara tried again.
Every day she watered the pot gently, kept it in the sunlight, and waited.
One week passed.
Two weeks passed.
And then—one morning—Tara saw a tiny green sprout pushing out of the soil!
She jumped up and down with joy.
“Grandma! It worked! My seed woke up!”
Her grandmother smiled,
“See? When we give time and care, patience brings beautiful results.”
Tara continued taking care of her little plant, and slowly it grew taller, stronger, and finally…
one shiny red tomato appeared!
Tara held it proudly and whispered,
“Patience really is magic.”
Moral: Patience helps beautiful things grow—slowly but surely.
