• The Legend of the Wishing Stone Jan 21, 2025

  

  High in the mist-shrouded mountains of northern Vietnam, where ancient pine trees whispered secrets to the wind and streams sang lullabies to the stones, lived a poor farmer named Duc. His small house clung to the mountainside like a bird’s nest, surrounded by terraced fields that he had carved from the rocky slopes with his own hands.

  Duc lived alone with his elderly mother, Bà Năm, a woman whose wisdom was as deep as the mountain valleys and whose heart was as pure as the morning dew. Though they possessed little more than their modest home, a few chickens, and the vegetables from their garden, they were content with their simple life.
