A Beautiful Dress
My neighbor’s eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place. Recently her parents 51 her to town to live with them. Wild and uneducated, she would use 52 words when she was angry. Sometimes she went so far as to 53 on the ground, to the 54 of all people around. Her parents tried to 55 her by beating and kicking. However, she became more 56 . Finally they became thoroughly 57 with her.
One day their next-door 58 , a retired teacher, gave the girl a snow-white dress, which was very 59 . It immediately caught the girl’s 60 and made them shine brightly.
The girl put on the dress and became quite a 61 person. She no longer acted rudely or hit others. She 62 seldom rolled on the floor. She knew running wild was not 63 for her in a beautiful dress. Since then, the girl had been 64 , neat, and lovely.
The story set me 65 a lot. Perhaps everyone has a beautiful dress 66 somewhere in his or her heart. Only some people are not aware of it, 67 it or take no notice of it. 68 is a powerful force or weapon — that’s something 69 by many of us. It can arouse fine qualities that humans are 70 with but have so far hidden somewhere. It has a soul-shaking influence that is indeed unmatched.

Having been a music teacher for twenty-seven years, I have always known that music touches the spirit. It can all kinds of barriers to reach the students in a very special way. It can be the by which each child can find their light. I’d like to share a story where music overcame a barrier and made a connection with a young student. One of my most students was a young girl called Vanessa. Vanessa had difficulty walking and couldn’t speak at that time. We sat on the floor for our music lessons. We all like a song, which was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped twice while singing the repeat, "Oh, yes!" We probably that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. She never said or sang a word. One day late in the school year, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around, looked at me directly in the eye, clapped her tiny hands twice and the words "Oh, yes!" I opened my mouth and for that moment I was the one who couldn’t speak . Through music, we had made an excellent . Several years later, I met Vanessa in the street in town. She waved to me with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands twice, copying the song we had performed so many times. This precious little girl, her connection with music, left a(n) on me that will last forever. Every child has the ability to learn and grow.
