The Cactus and the Butterfly
In a hot desert(沙漠), there lived a tall cactus(仙人掌). It kept all its water deep inside. “This water is mine alone,” it said.
One day, a thirsty butterfly flew to the cactus. “Please, may I have a drop of water? I haven’t drunk for days.”
“No!” shouted the cactus. “Go away!” The butterfly left sadly.
As time passed, the cactus grew lonelier. It saw other plants sharing with animals: flowers gave nectar(花蜜) to bees, trees offered shade to birds. But no one visited the cactus. Its thorns(刺) scared everyone away.
One stormy night, lightning hit the cactus! It cried out in pain. To its surprise, the sound brought the butterfly back. “Don’t be afraid,” said the butterfly gently. “I’ll help you.”
The butterfly called friends. Together, they carried water to the wounded cactus. Slowly, the cactus grew healthy again. From then on, it opened its body and shared water freely. Soon, the desert around it turned green with life.
The cactus learned: Sharing makes us all stronger.
