(C)
Jim, a successful
businessman, told the experience of his childhood.
When he was 12, his parents
died. He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at
him. No one showed kindness to him.
His only friend was a dog
named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink, but sometimes he was not
polite to it. He didn’t know that an unkind work sometimes could cut one’s
heart like a knife.
One day as he walked down
the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. Suddenly one of her bags
dropped from her arms. As she stopped to pick it up, she dropped other bags. He
came to help her. “Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” she said
kindly, smiling.
A special feeling came to
him. These were the first kind worlds he had ever heard. He watched her until
she went far away, and then he whistled (吹口哨)to his dog and went
directly to the river nearby.
“Thank you, dear! You are a
nice little boy!” he repeated(重复) the woman’s words. Then in a low voice he said to
his dog!” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.
“Uhum! Even a dog likes it!”
he said, “Well, Tige, I won’t say unkind words to you any more.” Tige waved its
tail happily.
The boy thought and thought.
Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw a clean nice boy. He was
amazed. From then on, he had a new life.
After telling this, the
businessman stopped for a while, and then he said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this
is the very place where that kind woman planted in me the first seed(种子) of kindness.
All of us should learn about kindness. What a great power(力量) it has!”
