This book tells the story of a lone mountain who had been just rocks and stones for a long time. It long for some company and became friends with a bird. As the story goes, the mountain became sad for the absence and tears came flowing from its surface and thus the start of life.
I consider the bird as a messenger of friendship. A bird that promises a visit once a year. A bird that offers support and reassurance to the lonely mountain. Just like friendship, our hope to grow with people is an endearing feeling. It starts with doubts and insecurities but when honed, can lead to beautiful events and memories. Just like love, our hope to grow in love and be with a special person is a journey. It may be difficult in the beginning but with perseverance, a new hope arises.
This book showed me the virtue of waiting. Time will always be on our side when it is the right moment for itself to reveal its glory. The waiting might be daunting for friendship or love but it surely pays, to wait.
