Once upon a time, there lived a queen of hearts who, contrary to popular belief, had no interest in crowns, thrones, or banquets. No, what fascinated her was adventure!
Every day, she rose well before dawn, put on her leather boots, and donned her coat to explore unknown worlds. She roamed forests, climbed mountains, and crossed rivers. Whenever she visited a new village, she would help those in need: she would repair a leaky roof, build a school bookcase, or even organize fundraisers to care for the injured. No matter the task, the Queen of Hearts never hesitated to roll up her sleeves and give of her time and energy.
One day, she ventured into a distant forest where no one dared to venture. There, she met farmers who were struggling to harvest their vegetables due to the drought. Without hesitation, she offered to bring them pipes and irrigation systems. With her help, the crops were saved, and the farmers offered her a basket of fresh fruit in thanks. What made the Queen of Hearts truly rich was her generosity. She never left on a journey without bringing back a little joy with her. Whether it was a poem for a remote villager or a small gift for a craftsman who had lost his market, she spread goodness around her. And even when she returned to the castle, she continued to give: a little of her time, her money, her attention. Upon her return, she was always welcomed as a hero, but for her, the adventure never ended.
Every day was a new opportunity to do good around her. For, even as Queen, she knew that one became richer by giving than by receiving.
