Experiencing the Neflental together, strong with consideration.

In the Neflental, the day in spring always begins with special colours. Today, a veil of mist hovers over the floral watch. In the gentle dawn, the animals are silent, because fine spiderwebs glisten with dew pearls. Cherry and violet blossoms awaken on old, mossy trees, glowing in pastel pink, lilac, emerald green, and pearl white. Pink periwinkle is already out and about with its friends.

Everyone wants to go to the Maplefire Clearing. Because there the new season conjures a special light: The maple trees blaze in red and orange. They glow like flames and warm the heart.

With consideration through the dawn

Rosa Immergrün is safely leading her friends across the damp valley floor. It's quiet because fine spiderwebs cross their path. She says, „Watch out for the little flowers under your feet! We don't want to trample anything.“ Everyone looks closely. One of her friends was just about to jump, but Rosa Immergrün holds him back. He smiles and says, „Thanks, I almost hurt the young violets!“

The group continues walking and discovers purple shadows at the edge of the path. They are shy mythical creatures, searching for colourful cherry blossoms in the morning dew. Rosa Immergrün doesn't want to scare them away. Therefore, she asks her friends to stand still for a moment. The creatures tiptoe past carefully – nobody disturbs them.

Dispute at the edge of the woods? A considerate approach to resolution

At the edge of the Maple Fire clearing, two friends quarrel. They both want to be the first to see the prettiest spot. One says, „I was here first!“ The other shouts, „But I ran faster!“ Now the mood sours. But Rosa Immergrün remains friendly. „If you listen to each other, we'll find a spot for everyone!“ suggests Rosa Immergrün.

The friends pause. Then one sits down in the golden moss. The other waits, standing patiently. This way, everyone can see the fiery plumes of the maple trees. And no one feels left out. Sometimes, it’s enough to wait and to listen.

Admiring the colours of autumn together

Soon, they will all gather under the flickering canopy of leaves. Light dances on their faces. The friends stay close together. A gentle breeze plays softly with the orange leaves. Pink Periwinkle conjures a small picnic for the group from a few branches and moss. Everyone gets a piece. No one takes more than they need. No one pushes their way forward. They laugh together, because sharing brings joy.

A friend whispers: „Good thing you were paying attention, Rosa Immergrün. Without you, we might have argued or broken something.“ But Rosa Immergrün says: „We can only do this because everyone is considerate. Only then can we enjoy the colourful wonder of the Maple Fire Clearing.“

What do we learn from this?

In the Neflental, the motto is: consideration makes us all strong together. Everyone looks out for each other. They take care of plants, animals, and even shy mythical creatures. Because when everyone helps each other, no one is alone. And sometimes, a kind word or a friendly glance is enough for everyone to experience the most beautiful things.
