In a nice cottage with a large garden in a small town of England, there lived an old man. He was seen to water or fertilize his flowers all the time. The garden was obviously well –tended and the flowers were so gorgeous that every passer -by would stop for a look. It was like a baby that was taken good care of.
One day a young painter went by the old man's garden. He stared at the splendid garden and the special cottage, pletely lost in admiration at the beauty of these sights, picturing how happy he would be if he lived in such a beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the gardener was blind. Shocked, the painter approached him, asking “Why are you busy looking after these flowers every day but in fact you cannot see them?” The blind man smiled, “I can tell you some reasons. First, I was a gardener when I was young. I saw the flowers every day and I really enjoyed the job. Second, although I can't see these flowers now, I can touch them. Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that's you “Me? But you don’t know me,” responded the painter, puzzled still.
“Yeah, it’s true that I don’t know you. But I know flowers are like angels. I know many people who are enthusiastic about life would stop by and the beauty of my garden will get them into a good mood. Meanwhile, they also give me a chance to have a word with you here and to enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The old man’s words touched the painter. He grew flowers and regarded them as a link of minds. Every flower had eyes with which they could see the kindness of the old man’s heart and the sweetness of his soul. He grew flowers in his heart. Just like Beethoven, who was deaf, but posed a sea of attractive tunes, the blind man created beauty for the world.
