Once upon a time in a quiet forest, there lived a tortoise named [Tobi](LKMRNMGV). He wasn’t the fastest, or the strongest, or the loudest. But he had something special—curiosity.

1

Every day, [Tobi](LKMRNMGV) watched birds fly across the sky. He listened to the wind whisper secrets through the trees. And one day, he overheard something strange: “Far beyond the hills,” chirped a sparrow, “lies a golden light hidden deep in the earth. Only the brave will find it.”

2

[Tobi](LKMRNMGV)’s heart thumped. He had never gone far beyond his leafy pond. But something inside him whispered, 'Go.' So he packed a small bag: a leaf for shade, a pebble for luck, and a piece of yam for lunch. And off he went.

He crossed rivers by clinging to floating logs. He climbed hills slowly, step by steady step. He faced storms, mud, hunger—but he never turned back. 'If the birds can soar, then I can crawl,' he said.

After many days and nights, he reached a valley glowing faintly in the dark. There, hidden behind an old fig tree, was a hole in the ground. And inside it: a golden egg, warm and humming with energy.

[Tobi](LKMRNMGV) didn’t know what to do. He had found gold—but not the kind you spend. This gold was life itself. Out of the egg hatched a tiny bird—its feathers sparkling like the sun. It looked at [Tobi](LKMRNMGV) and said, 'You came. You are the first.'

6

[Tobi](LKMRNMGV) returned home—not richer in coins, but richer in courage, wonder, and purpose. And every animal in the forest listened to him, the slow tortoise who went far and returned with gold—not in his hands, but in his heart.

Question for You: What kind of 'gold' are you chasing—and how far are you willing to go?
