Once upon a time, in England, there was a giant who had an extremely large and beautiful garden. The garden was full of all kinds of flowers, plants and trees. In spring, a hundred flowers were in full bloom; in summer, the trees provided cool shade; in autumn, it was laden with fruits; and in winter, it was covered with white snow. It was a place like a fairyland. The giant liked his garden very much and thought it was his own garden alone.
One day, when the giant returned from his travels, he found a group of children playing in his garden. The giant was very selfish. He didn't want the children to play in his garden, so he shouted at the children loudly, asking them to leave. Moreover, he built a high wall around the garden and hung a large sign which read "No Entry".
Since the giant drove the children away, strange things happened. The garden seemed to be under a spell. Whether it was spring or summer, the garden always had a winter scene. The flowers no longer bloomed, the trees no longer grew, and there was snow and frost everywhere. It was bitterly cold, and even the little birds didn't want to stay in this garden. The giant stayed alone in this cold garden. He felt very lonely and wondered why the garden had become like this, but he still didn't want to let the children in.
One day, the giant was awakened by a pleasant birdsong. To his surprise, he found that it was a little bird singing on his windowsill. He looked out of the window and saw that outside the wall, the children were laughing and playing, and the place where the children were playing was full of life, with flowers in full bloom and green grass like a carpet. The giant suddenly realized that it was the children who brought spring, and it was because of his selfishness that the garden had lost its vitality.
The giant felt very regretful. He immediately walked to the wall of the garden and pushed it down forcefully. Then he said gently to the children, "Children, I'm sorry. You can come and play in my garden." The children were very happy to hear this and ran merrily into the garden. Magical things happened. As the children arrived, the ice and snow in the garden began to melt, the flowers bloomed again, the trees grew tender green leaves, and the little birds sang merrily. The whole garden regained its former vitality and energy.
Since then, the giant was no longer selfish. He became good friends with the children and played happily in the garden every day. The garden was always full of laughter and joy, and the giant also understood that sharing can bring happiness, while selfishness can only bring loneliness and coldness.
