Once upon a time, in a small village, there lived a young girl named Lily. She lived with her grandmother and helped her sell flowers in the marketplace. Despite their poor living conditions, Lily was a happy and optimistic child.

One day, as she was gathering flowers in the forest, she stumbled upon a magical pond. The pond had a glowing aura and as she approached, a fairy appeared before her. The fairy told her that she had been granted a wish for her kind heart and asked what she desired the most.

Without hesitation, Lily wished for her grandmother to live a life of comfort and luxury. The fairy granted her wish and disappeared.

When Lily returned home, she found that her grandmother's hut had been replaced with a magnificent mansion. She was overjoyed and couldn't wait to share the news with her grandmother. However, when she entered the mansion, she found her grandmother lying on a bed, looking weak and ill.

Lily soon realized that her grandmother was not comfortable in the mansion and longed for the simple life they used to live. She approached the fairy pond once again and wished to undo her previous wish.

The fairy appeared and granted her wish. Lily's grandmother regained her health, and they returned to their hut, surrounded by the beautiful flowers they used to sell in the marketplace.

From that day on, Lily learned that true happiness comes from within and material possessions do not bring true joy. She lived the rest of her life spreading kindness and joy wherever she went.
