This happened many summers ago. There was a young flower in a desert where was always dried and sad-looking. It was growing by itself, enjoying everyday 1 and saying to the Sun “When shall 2 I be grown up?” And the Sun would say “Be patient. Each time I touch you, you grow a little.” And she was so pleased because she would have a chance to bring beauty 3 to this corner of sand, and this is all she wanted to do-bring a little bit of beauty to this world.

One day, the hunter 4 came by and stepped on her. She was going to die and she felt so sad, not because she was dying,but because she had no chance to bring a little bit of beauty to this corner of the desert.

The Great Spirit 5 saw her and was listening “Indeed” he said “She should be living.” And he reached down and touched her and gave her life. And she grew up to be a beautiful flower; and this corner of the desert became so beautiful because of her.
