Read this story to remember this word:
In a realm governed by the ebb and flow of fortune, there existed a principle known as accrue. It was the silent gatherer of time’s bounty, the unseen force that turned moments into treasures, collecting the droplets of effort and chance until they formed a stream of prosperity. This principle was revered by the people, a guiding light in their endeavors, teaching them that the rewards of patience and diligence were not immediate but accrued, woven into the fabric of their lives. Through seasons of toil and waiting, they learned that true wealth was not in the gold that filled their coffers but in the richness of time’s harvest, a legacy accrued across the span of lifetimes.
