Santa Can Come before Christmas
It was last June. I went into a supermarket to buy some vegetables,when a young man asked me.
“Can you tell me where the counter(柜台) is? ”
“Well, the milk is in the lower right corner,” I replied.
Picking up my things,I finally came to the milk counter where I met the same man. He
was almost 10 bottles of milk in his hand.
I asked,“Do you need a ______?”
“Sure,thank you.” he answered.
I was he was still picking more bottles and after a few minutes his trolley had 24 bottles of milk.
I laughed and asked, “Why so many bottles?”
He smiled and said, “These are _____ my street dogs. Today I want to be a Santa for them.”
I said, “Well ,it’s too for you to be a Santa, It is still June and Christmas comes in .”
He _ at me for a second, but he left the counter without ____ anything.
,we met again at the bread counter.
“So these bread and cakes are also for the street dogs, Mr . Santa.”
He smiled and said, “Yes. These are also for the dogs and I love to be Mr. Santa in the month of June. Santa is a representation(象征) of surprises and . We always hope Santa comes before . But in real life there is a Santa in each one of us. He is always ready to help us at any time, no matter(不管) which month it is. Maybe when you offered a trolley to me, there was a Santa in you. When we food to a poor man or a(n) to someone who is caught in the rain ,we are being Santa there. So when you offer help to others or get help from others, just think that Santa has come all the way for you.”
He left and I was because of meeting him. It was right to understand Santa can come before Christmas. We just need to know he is around us by giving happiness and love to others.

A master (大师) went to India. In those times, we didn’t have planes or many kinds of transport (交通工具) that we do now. So the master went to India 3 . He didn’t go to India before. And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit, but much of it was expensive. Then he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. And it was in the shop, not expensive at all.
So he went up and asked, “ a kilo?” And the shopkeeper said, “Two Rupees.” Two Rupees in India is , just like waste paper (废纸). So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But he ate some of it: Oh, my God! His eyes watered, his mouth watered and burned, his eyes were burning, his head was burning and his face became . As he coughed (咳嗽) and was nearly out of breath, he jumped up and down, saying, “Ah! Ah! Ah!”
But he still continued (继续) to eat the fruit! Some people looked at him and said, “You’re , man. Those are chilies (辣椒)! You can’t eat so many; they’re not good for you! People put just into food for taste. You can’t just eat them like that; they’re not fruit!” But the master said, “No, I can’t stop! I money for them, and now I’ll eat them. It’s my money!”
We do a lot of things like that. Sometimes we know there’s no more hope that things will change in the future, we still continue just because we put a lot of money, time and love into it. Just like the man who ate the chilies but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to waste the money.
So even if you lose something, let it go and move on. That’s than continuing to lose.
