22、Until I was 8, I spent every Sunday outside in the garden with Nana. The zucchini(西葫芦) plants quickly became my favorite. I would sit on the ground, looking at them quietly.

“Nana,” I asked one day. “Should I take off all these little yellow flowers?”

“No, darling,” she said gently. “Those flowers will turn into zucchini soon.”

“Really?”

“You just wait. Soon you’ll see that little things can turn into wonderful things. You should remember that.”

Every Sunday I returned to the garden to check on the plants, and each time I saw more zucchini.

“Are there so many because I take good care of the plants?” I asked.

“Yes, ” Nana said. “When you look after things, good things will grow. You should remember that.”

For months I returned every week to Nana’s to see how my plants were doing, and each time I was proud to see more zucchini. Until one day, they stopped appearing, and a few weeks later, there were none.

“Nana, what’s wrong with my plants?” I asked tearfully. “They’re not growing anymore.”

“That’s what happens, darling. Things grow and then stop. Nothing lasts forever.”
