Under the warm spring sun, Li Xiaozhi sat on a small wooden bench in front of his house, enjoying the rare tranquility on the grassland. He is an ordinary herdsman, in addition to taking care of the sheep every day, he chats with his neighbors, and lives a simple and ordinary life.
Neighbor Lao Wang is a storyteller, and he can often tell some connotative and wonderful jokes, which make Li Xiaozhi listen to it with relish. On this day, Lao Wang sat in front of Li Xiaozhi's house again and started his new story.
"Ash, do you know? There is a legend in the grassland that there is a magical flower that blooms only on the warmest day of spring, and only for an hour. Lao Wang said mysteriously.
Li Xiaozhi asked curiously, "Really, is there anything special about that flower?"
Lao Wang smiled and continued: "It is said that this flower can fulfill one of people's wishes. But it's not easy to find it, as it only appears in specific locations, and only one person can see it. ”
When Li Xiaozhi heard this, he couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart. He had always felt that his life was too dull, and it would be great if he could have a chance to make his wish come true!
In the days that followed, Li Xiaozhi began to look around for the magical flower. He walked through every nook and cranny of the steppe, climbed over rugged hills, and even penetrated deep into the dense forests where no one dared to go. But every time it was a disappointment, and the flower seemed to be just a distant legend.
Until one day, Li Xiaozhi met an old man on the grassland. The old man told him that the magical flower did not exist, it was just a parable, which was used to tell people to cherish the happiness in front of them, and not to always pursue those ethereal things.
Li Xiaozhi listened to the old man's words, and his heart suddenly brightened. He realized that he had been chasing the unrealistic and neglecting the beauty around him. He began to re-examine his life and realized that he had more than enough.
He returned home, sat on a small wooden bench in front of the door, and looked at the grassland under the warm spring sun, his heart full of gratitude and satisfaction. He understands that true happiness is not to pursue those things that are out of reach, but to cherish everything around him and be grateful for what life has given him.
Since then, Li Xiaozhi has become more optimistic and positive. He began to pay attention to the people and things around him, help his neighbors solve problems, and share happiness with his friends. His life became more fulfilling and meaningful, and he also became one of the most popular people on the steppe.
And the story of Lao Wang has also spread throughout the grassland, becoming a fable that inspires people to cherish the happiness in front of them. People begin to re-examine their lives and find that happiness is all around them, and they only need to feel and cherish it with their hearts.

When we begin to pay attention to the people and things around us, and feel and cherish them with our hearts, we will find that happiness is always around us.
