A Little Forest Home
Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana found a lovely spot in the forest to live.
There was no big palace. So Lakshmana built a cozy little hut from branches and leaves.
Sita decorated it with wildflowers. Rama gathered sweet fruit for dinner.
At night, they sat under the stars and told happy stories. The simple hut felt as warm as any palace.
"We do not need much to be happy," Rama smiled. "We just need love and each other."
Happiness comes from love and being content, not from having many things.
