One day, my brother opened my father's new book and drew all over the first page with a
pen. When my father
1 the room, my brother became nervous. He knew that he had done
something wrong. He was
2 that my father would punish(惩罚) him.
My father
3 his much-loved book, looked at it carefully for quite a while and said
4. Books were important to him, but what he did next wasn't what we
5. Instead of
punishing my brother, he sat down and took the
6 from my brother's hand. He smiled at the
little kid and
7 next to the drawings made by John: John's
8, 1959, age 3. "You have
made the book valuable(宝贵的). Thank you so much for the drawings you did in my book," my
father said kindly.
Over the
9, many books came and went from our shelf. We moved several times and
10
a lot: success and failure; happiness and sadness. During those years, we would from
time to time open the book, look at the drawings, read my father's
11 of love, and feel
excited.
Now I know my father taught us
12 we can make every bad event in life have a good
result. If we are ready to look at it from another side, the
13 of others will touch us a lot. And he
also made us
14 what is really important in life: people, not things;
15, not anger.
Each time I think about these things, I will smile and whisper, "Thank you, Dad."
