As a young man, Al was a skilled artist with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son had a bad stomachache. Thinking it was only a common illness, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But the boy died suddenly that night.

Knowing the death could have been avoided if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, he always felt he was guilty(感到内疚). To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two situations were more than Al could stand, and he turned to alcohol(酒) for help. Al began to lose everything he had—his land, house, etc. Finally Al died alone in a small bar.

Hearing of Al’s death, I thought, “What a totally wasted life! What a complete failure!” As time went by, I began to revalue my earlier thought, I knew AI’s now adult son, Ernie, He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known, I saw the love between Ernie and his children, thinking that kindness had to come from somewhere.

I hadn’t heard Ernie talked much about his father. One day, I got up my courage to ask him what on earth his father had done so that he became such a special person. Ernie said quietly, “As a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘Love you, son.’”

Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge AI as a failure. He had not left any material possessions(个人财产 )behind, But he had been a kind loving father, and left behind his love.
