The Helpful Hand
We want always admit it, but we can all use help once in awhile.
The classroom buzzed with excitement as everyone worked on their art projects. Emma was having trouble with her clay sculpture, watching in frustration as it kept collapsing. Noticing her struggle, Leo quietly left his own project and walked over.
“If you let me Emma, I’d love to help,” he offered with a gentle smile.
Together, they molded the clay, Leo patiently guiding Emma with each step. Soon, her sculpture took shape, and Emma’s face lit up with gratitude.
“Thanks, Leo,” she whispered.
Their teacher watched from afar, smiling. Sometimes, a even the smallest acts of compassion make the biggest difference.
