A young woman took great pride in flowers in her yard. She had been raised by her grandmother who had taught her to love and care for flowers. So her yard was the most beautiful one her village.

One day, while looking through a flower list that she often ordered from, a picture of a plant immediately caught her eyes. She had never seen a flower like that before. “I must have it” she said to herself, and she ordered it.

When it arrived, she planted it at the bottom of a stone wall at the back of her yard. It grew vigorously, with beautiful green leaves all over it. Day after day, she took care of it, but there were no flowers.

One morning, as she stood looking at the plants, she felt disappointed. She wondered why her plant hadn’t bloomed(開花).

However, at this moment, her disabled neighbor invited her to her yard and said, “Thank you so much! You can’t imagine how much I have enjoyed the flowers that you planted! The young woman walked into her neighbor’s yard. She saw that on the other side of the wall the plant was full of flowers.

They were, indeed, the most beautiful flowers that she had ever seen. The plant had grown up through the crevices(裂縫) in the wall.

If you can’t see the results of your labor(勞動), it doesn’t mean that there isn’t any fruit.
