One morning, a blind boy sat beside a building with a hat by his feet．He held a sign which said, “I am blind．Please help me．”
There were only a few coins in the hat．A man was walking by．He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat．He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it．He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could the new words．
Soon the hat began to fill up．A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy．That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were．The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?”
The man said, “I only wrote the truth．I said what you said, but in a different way．”
What he had written was, “Today is a beautiful day, but I can' t see it．”
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
Of course both signs told people the boy was blind．But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat．The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beautiful day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind．
The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sig told people they were so lucky that they were not blind．
There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story．
The first is：Treasure （珍惜） what you have．Someone else has less．Try your best to help those who need your help．

Five well-known fathers and their children travel around China, riding camels through the western deserts (沙漠), fishing in the east sea, and selling vegetables to get money back home in the southwestern Yunnan Province. One dad doesn’t know how to do his daughter’s hair, but he learns quickly and does it well now. Another one must stay with his son for three days in the desert, because he and his son don’t know how to cook, the two only eat instant (即食) noodles.

New York, London, Paris and other big cities are exciting places to live in. There are many interesting things to see and to do in big cities. You can go to different kinds of theaters to see plays and films. You can also go shopping to buy things from all over the world.
But there are more serious problems in big cities, too. The cost of living is high and there are too many people in big cities. Every year many people move to the cities because there are more chances to find work, to study at good schools and to receive good medical care（医疗）. But sometimes these people can’t find work or a good place to live in. Also too many people in such a small place make it hard to keep the cities safe and clean.
Some people enjoy living in big cities, but others don’t. When people move to big cities, they should think about the problems of living there.

One day, many years ago, when I was working as a psychologist in England, I brought David into my office. His face was pale and he looked at his own feet.
David lost his father when he was two years old and lived with his mother and grandfather ever since. But when he was 13, his grandfather died and his mother was killed in a car accident. His teacher told me that he refused to talk to others from then on.
David didn’t say a word. As he was leaving, I put my hand on his shoulder. “Come back next week if you like.” I said.
He came and I suggested we play a game of chess. He agreed. After that we played chess every Wednesday afternoon — in complete silence. Usually, he arrived earlier than we agreed. It seemed that he liked to be with me.
