🌿 Whisper of the Last Tree 🌿
In the middle of the busy city, there stood one old tree.
It didn’t rush. It didn’t shine. It simply breathed.
When the cold season came, people quietly gathered.
They tied small memories to its branches — a ribbon, a wish, a silent smile.
The tree didn’t speak, but it held all their stories close,
like a gentle guardian of forgotten dreams.
And so, even when the world hurried on,
the heart of the city still remembered how to be still,
how to listen,
how to hold a little love in its roots.
Story:
Once, in the heart of a bustling business district, there stood an old tree — the last memory of a time when the land was open and free. Long before the tall buildings and busy offices arrived, children had played under its branches, and elders had shared stories beneath its shade.
Time passed, and the world around the tree changed. Glass towers rose toward the sky, and the streets filled with hurried footsteps and the endless ticking of clocks. Yet somehow, the tree remained. No one could bring themselves to cut it down.
Maybe, deep in their hearts, they knew — the tree carried something that the buildings could not: a silent, breathing memory.
Every winter, during the season of light and reflection, people from many places would gather around the tree. They would hang small ornaments on its branches — not just decorations, but pieces of their hearts: a ribbon from a childhood gift, a worn photo of a loved one, a small note filled with hope.
The tree became a quiet meeting place for memories, prayers, and dreams.
Even in a world that rushed forward, the tree stayed still — reminding all who passed by that in the midst of structure and ambition, the soul still blooms when it is given a little space, a little tenderness, and a little time.
