Taso Walks a Mountain

Tolerance Watercolor style

A little girl named Taso embarks on a journey up Mtatsminda Mountain in Tbilisi to find the souls of her grandparents. Along the way, she meets people and animals who share their stories, teaching her the value of tolerance.

Taso lived in the vibrant city of Tbilisi, Georgia. She loved wearing her pink dress and exploring the world around her. One day, her grandmother told her about the souls of her grandparents resting on Mtatsminda Mountain. Taso was curious and wanted to meet them. But she also wondered why she had never seen them before.

Taso decided to climb Mtatsminda Mountain to find her grandparents' souls. She packed a small bag with snacks and water. As she began her journey, she felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. She knew this was a huge adventure. But what if she couldn't find them?

After a while, Taso met a kind old man sitting by the path. He smiled and said, 'Hello, little one. Where are you going?' Taso explained her quest to find her grandparents' souls. The old man nodded, 'That's a noble journey. But first, you must learn tolerance.' Taso was puzzled but thanked him and continued her walk.

Taso's first obstacle came when she reached a group of children playing. They laughed and pointed at her pink dress. ' - Why are you wearing such a silly dress?' one boy teased. Taso felt hurt but remembered the old man's words. ' - It's my favorite dress,' she replied and walked on.

As Taso climbed higher, she met a stray dog. The dog barked loudly and blocked her path. ' - Please move,' Taso pleaded. The dog growled but didn't budge. Taso took a deep breath and gently patted the dog. ' - I'm not here to hurt you,' she whispered. The dog calmed down and let her pass.

Further along, Taso came across a wise owl perched on a branch. ' - Who are you?' the owl hooted. Taso explained her quest again. The owl blinked slowly and said, ' - Sometimes, the path is more important than the destination.' Taso didn't understand but thanked the owl and continued climbing.

Taso's legs were tired, and she felt like giving up. She sat down on a rock and sighed. ' - Maybe I should just go home,' she thought. She looked around and felt alone. ' - What if I never find them?' she whispered to herself.

A gentle breeze carried the scent of flowers, and Taso heard a soft voice. ' - Don't give up, Taso,' the voice said. Taso looked around but saw no one. She felt a warm presence and realized it was her grandmother's spirit. ' - Keep walking, my dear,' the voice encouraged. Taso stood up with renewed determination.

Reaching the top of the mountain, Taso found a cemetery with famous Georgian writers. Their spirits appeared and shared their stories. ' - We faced many challenges, but we never gave up,' one writer said. Taso listened intently and felt inspired. ' - Thank you for your stories,' she said.

Taso finally found her grandparents' resting place. Tears welled up in her eyes as she felt their loving presence. ' - I did it, Grandma and Grandpa,' she whispered. She realized that the journey had taught her tolerance and understanding. Taso walked back home, her heart full of love and wisdom.
