The Wise Old Man and the Golden Apple
Once upon a time, in a small village nestled between rolling hills, there lived a wise old man with a long, white beard. Everyone in the village respected him for his wisdom and kindness.
One sunny morning, the old man walked into the village square, holding a golden apple in his hand. The villagers gathered around, curious to see what the wise old man would say.
“Children,” he began, “this golden apple is not just a fruit; it is a symbol of wisdom and knowledge. I have a riddle for you all. Who can solve it will receive this golden apple.”
The villagers listened intently as the old man spoke.
Riddle:
“I have a house but no door, no window, no floor. Yet I have a room where you can stay. What am I?”
The villagers pondered the riddle, but none could come up with the answer. The old man smiled and said, “The answer is a tree. A tree is a house with no door, no window, or floor, but it has a room where you can stay, under its branches.”
The villagers clapped and cheered, impressed by the old man’s wisdom. They learned that sometimes, the simplest things in life can be the most profound.
And so, the wise old man handed the golden apple to the child who had asked the best question during the discussion. The child was delighted and promised to use the apple as a reminder of the old man’s wisdom.
From that day on, the villagers often visited the wise old man to hear his stories and learn from his wisdom. And the golden apple became a symbol of the knowledge and love that the old man shared with everyone in the village.
