Once upon a time, in a small village, there lived a boy named Tom. Tom was known for his kind heart and generous nature. He always helped others, even when he didn't have much himself. One sunny afternoon, Tom was walking home from school. He saw an old man, sitting by the side of the road. The man looked very tired and hungry. His clothes were torn and his face was sad. Tom stopped and asked, Sir, are you okay? The old man looked up and said, I am very hungry. I haven't eaten anything for two days. Tom ran home as fast as he could. He opened the kitchen cupboard and took out a loaf of bread, some cheese and an apple. He also filled a bottle with fresh water. He put everything in a basket and hurried back to the old man. Here you go, Sir, Tom said with a big smile. Please eat this. It will make you feel better. The old man took the food with trembling hands. Tears filled his eyes as he said, Thank you, my boy. You are very kind. May God bless you. Tom watched as the old man ate the food. He felt happy knowing he had helped someone in need. After the old man finished eating, he said, I feel much better now. You are a wonderful boy. What is your name? My name is Tom, he replied. I just wanted to help you. The old man smiled and said, Tom, you have a big heart. Remember, when you help others, good things will come to you. Days passed and Tom continued his daily routine. One day, as he was walking to school, he saw a gathered around a big tree. Curious, he went closer to see what was happening. To his surprise, the old man he had helped was standing there. But he looked different. He was no longer in ragged clothes. Instead, he wore fine garments and had a bright smile on his face. Tom, the old man called out when he saw him. Come here, Tom walked up to the old man, confused.

Tom was shocked. But why did you do that? The old man replied. I wanted to find someone with a pure heart. You gave me food without asking for anything in return. You showed true kindness as a reward. I want to help you and your family. Tom couldn't believe his ears. Really? You want to help us? Yes, said the old man. I have brought gifts for you. Follow me. Tom followed the old man to a cart filled with food, clothes, and even some gold coins. The old man gave everything to Tom and said, You and your family will never be hungry or poor again.
