24、   A little snail felt tired from carrying his shell all day. He asked his mother, "Mom, why do we have to carry our shells?"

His mother told him, "Because we don't have any bones (骨头) in our body. We can only crawl (爬). The hard shell not only helps us move faster but also protect us."

The little snail was still puzzled, "Caterpillars (蝴蝶的幼虫) don't have bones, either. They can't even crawl. But they don't need to carry heavy shells."

The mother smiled and said, "Caterpillars turn into butterflies when they grow up. The sky will protect them."

"How about the earthworms? They don't have bones, they don't crawl fast and they don't turn into butterflies. And they don't have to carry heavy shells." The mother told him, "Earthworms live underground and the land protects them."

25、   One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the poor to the most powerful came for breakfast.

26、In your life, there are a lot of people around you. They are your relatives, neighbors, friends or classmates. Sometimes you get along well with them, but sometimes don’t. What can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with him. But it’s not a good idea. You’d better forget all this and forgive (原谅) him.

Maybe it’s not easy for you to do that, but it’s possible. Please remember: Keep a good mood, and you’ll keep healthy. Staying angry with others, in fact, means letting others’ mistakes treat yourself unfairly.

Second, don’t wait others to say sorry to you. If anyone hurts you, he won’t say sorry to you.   He may just want to hurt you or just don’t see things the same way.

Third, try to see things in others’ shoes. You can understand their minds better and make yourself happier.

At last, try to know yourself very well. Whose mistakes caused that, yours or others’? If it’s our fault(错误), try to say sorry to them. If it isn’t, smile at the thing.
