A Special Meal
The story was a true one and still moved me deeply.
Thirty years ago, I got to know a poor lady named Rose. She had no kids and lived alone.
When I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she was inviting me to have lunch.
We walked from my workplace to a little restaurant on David Street.
On the way, I began to worry: I knew she had no money, but if I offered to pay for the lunch, I was afraid I would hurt her.
There were many people in the restaurant and all of them were happy.
Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to work in the kitchen.
After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to enjoy the delicious food together.
She told me that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work.
To my surprise, she also explained that the workers who were working there were all volunteers.
I still remember the beautiful afternoon I shared with Rose. Though we had a meal together only once, it was paid by Rose's work.
The weather was warm and bright, and everyone's smile was warm and bright as well.
I'm still thinking that life cannot be easy to us, but we can still do something for our friends and neighbors.
The world will be nicer if everybody would like to share happiness with others.
It will never be dark if there is a light in everyone's heart.
特別的一餐
這個(gè)故事是真實(shí)的界赔,仍然深深地打動(dòng)了我埃碱。
三十年前疯特,我認(rèn)識(shí)了一個(gè)叫羅斯的可憐的女士。她沒有孩子棉胀,一個(gè)人住。
當(dāng)我去看她時(shí),我總是給羅斯帶些咖啡和食物抖锥。有一天她說她要請(qǐng)我吃午飯宵喂。
我們從工作場(chǎng)所步行到大衛(wèi)街的一家小餐館糠赦。
在路上,我開始擔(dān)心:我知道她沒有錢锅棕,但如果我愿意付午餐費(fèi)拙泽,我怕我會(huì)傷害她。
餐廳里有很多人哲戚,他們都很高興奔滑。
羅斯叫我坐在窗邊喝咖啡。然后她去廚房工作顺少。
大約20分鐘后朋其,她出來和我坐在一起。她只付了一頓飯的錢脆炎,我們就開始一起享用美味的食物了梅猿。
她告訴我,如果沒有錢秒裕,餐館會(huì)讓人們?yōu)橐活D飯而工作袱蚓,如果他們不能工作,餐館會(huì)給他們免費(fèi)的一頓飯几蜻。
令我驚訝的是喇潘,她還解釋說,在那里工作的工人都是志愿者梭稚。
我仍然記得和羅斯共度的美好下午颖低。雖然我們只在一起吃過一次飯,但那是由羅斯的工作支付的弧烤。
天氣溫暖明亮忱屑,每個(gè)人的笑容也溫暖而明亮。
我仍然認(rèn)為生活對(duì)我們來說不容易暇昂,但我們?nèi)匀豢梢詾槲覀兊呐笥押袜従幼鳇c(diǎn)什么莺戒。
如果每個(gè)人都愿意和別人分享快樂,世界會(huì)變得更美好急波。
如果每個(gè)人心中都有光明从铲,那就永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)黑暗。
美文閱讀
㈠人的眼中幔崖、心里食店,總有一個(gè)前方渣淤。前方的情景并不明確,朦朧如霧中之月吉嫩,閃爍如水中之影价认。這種不確定性,反而助長(zhǎng)了人們對(duì)前方的幻想自娩。前方使他們興奮用踩、使他們行動(dòng)、使他們陷入如癡如醉的狀態(tài)忙迁。他們仿佛從蒼茫的前方脐彩,聽到了呼喚他們前往的鐘聲和激動(dòng)人心的鼓樂。
他們不知疲倦地走著姊扔。因此惠奸,這世界上就有了路。為了快速地走向前方恰梢、走向更遠(yuǎn)的地方佛南,就有了船,有了馬車嵌言,有了我們眼前這輛破舊而簡(jiǎn)陋的汽車嗅回。
路聯(lián)結(jié)著家與前方。人們借著路摧茴,向前流浪绵载。自古以來,人類就喜歡流浪苛白。當(dāng)然也可以說娃豹,人類不得不流浪。流浪不僅是出于天性购裙,也出于命運(yùn)培愁。是命運(yùn)把人拋到了路上。
即便有許多人終身未出家門缓窜,或未遠(yuǎn)出家門,但在他們內(nèi)心深處谍咆,仍然有無家可歸的感覺禾锤,他們也在漫無盡頭的路上。
人們?cè)缫寻l(fā)現(xiàn)摹察,人生實(shí)質(zhì)上是一場(chǎng)苦旅恩掷。
離家、回家供嚎,人的欲望一直在這條路上黄娘。
㈡世間的煩惱皆源自攀比峭状。只要能認(rèn)識(shí)到自己本來的職責(zé),就不會(huì)攀比逼争,煩惱也會(huì)一下子少很多优床。
比起昔日精力充沛的自己,現(xiàn)在的自己是“最棒”的誓焦。
不要跟別人攀比胆敞。不要把現(xiàn)在的自己跟過去的自己做比較。煩惱大多源自比較杂伟。
