The little girl lived in a small simple house. Across the valley there was a wonderful house high on the hill – and this house had golden windows, so the little girl wished to grow up and live in a house with golden windows instead of an ordinary house like hers.And although she loved her parents and her family, she wished to live in such a golden house.

When she got to an age when she gained enough skill and sensibility to go outside her garden fence, she asked her mother if she could go for a bike ride outside the gate. The little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the lane and across the valley, she rode her bike until she got to the gate of the golden house across on the other hill. The girl focused on the path that lead to the house and then on the house itself… and was so disappointed as she realized all the windows were plain and rather dirty, reflecting nothing other than  the sad neglect of the house that stood empty.

So sad she didn’t go any further. As she glanced up she saw a sight to amaze her: there across the way on her side of the valley was a little house and its windows glistened golden as the sun shone on her little home.

She realized that she had been living in her golden house and all the love and care she found there was what made her home the “golden house”. Everything she dreamed was right there in front of the nose.
