• The Tale of the Moon Goddess and the Woodcutter Jul 10, 2025

  

  In the mountains of northern Vietnam, where ancient forests whisper secrets to the wind and streams cascade down rocky slopes like silver ribbons, there lived a young woodcutter named Cuoi. He was known throughout the mountain villages for his honest heart, his incredible strength, and his skill with an axe—but most of all for his contentment with the simple life he had chosen.

  Every morning, Cuoi would venture into the deep forest to gather wood, always taking only what was needed and never cutting down healthy trees that still had many years of growth ahead of them. He lived in a small bamboo hut that he had built himself, surrounded by a garden where he grew vegetables to share with elderly neighbors who could no longer work their own land.
