My grandfather was a strong man. He worked as a carpenter all his life. One day, when he was in his late seventies, he told me about an incident that happened when he was a teenager.

He was walking in the woods one afternoon and came across a small, injured bird. It had fallen from its nest and couldn’t fly. My grandfather, with his kind heart, decided to take it home and nurse it back to health. He made a little box for it and fed it every day. After a few weeks, the bird was fully recovered and could fly again. My grandfather took it outside and set it free. As he watched the bird soar into the sky, he felt a great sense of satisfaction.

Years later, during a particularly harsh winter, my grandfather was out in the forest cutting wood. The snow was deep, and it was very cold. Suddenly, he heard a familiar chirping sound. Looking up, he saw a bird flying above him. It circled around him a few times and then dropped a small twig at his feet. My grandfather was amazed. He believed it was the same bird he had saved all those years ago, now coming back to show its gratitude.
