I
have forgotten the name of an old lady who was a customer on my paper run when
Iwas a twelve- year-old boy. Yet it seems like just yesterday that she taught
me a lesson in forgiveness that I can only hope to pass on to someone else
someday.
On
a Saturday afternoon, a friend and I were throwing rocks onto the roof of the
old lady's house from a spot in her backyard. The object of our play was to
observe how the rocks changed to missiles (导弹)
as they rolled to the roof edge and shot out into the yard like comets (彗星) falling from the sky.
I
found myself a perfectly smooth rock. The stone was too smooth, however, so it
slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight for a small window on
the old lady's back porch. At the sound of glass being broken, we too off from
the old lady's yard faster than any of our missiles flew off her roof. I was
too scared about getting caught that first night.
However,
a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered, I started to
feel guilty for her misfortune. She still greeted me with a smile each day when
I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her
presence. I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in
three weeks I had the seven dollars that I calculated would cover the cost of
her window.

答案: I put the money in an envelope with a note and headed for the old lady's house. I wrote a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window. Then I put the envelope through the letter slot in her door. My soul felt redeemed and I couldn't wait for the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old lady's eyes. The next day, I. handed the old lady her paper, pretending nothing had happened. She thanked me for the paper and said, "Here, I have something for you." It was a bag of cookies. I thanked her and ate the cookies as I continued my route. After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was shocked. Inside was the seven dollars and a short note that said," I'm proud of you. "
