씨앗 속의 비밀

A Tiny Package

Hold one small, dry seed in the palm of your hand. It feels dry, hard, and almost lifeless. But this little package is not truly asleep forever. Inside that tiny shell hides an amazing secret. A whole young plant lies folded up and quietly waiting. The seed carries food, a plan, and a spark of life. Yet a mighty tree can rise from it one day.

Waking Up

A seed can rest and wait for a very long time. It waits for water, warmth, and soft soil. When the rain comes, the seed drinks and swells. Warm days help the seed grow a little faster. Soon the hard outer shell cracks and splits open. A tiny root pushes down to search for water. A slender green shoot climbs up toward the warm sunlight. The tiny plant reaches for light it has never seen. Down and up, the seed always knows which way to grow.
