It was the art class and the teacher placed Henry beside me. Suddenly, he jogged my elbow and made me blot my painting, a two-week work for my little sick sister.
With great anger, I said something1to him. ""l didn't do it purposely," he calmly replied, which displeased me a lot.
I2him back by pushing him to mess his work. "You did that on purpose!" Henry shouted and even raised his hand. The teacher saw it, which made Henry stop and3his hand down quickly. "I shall wait for you outside!" he said4At that moment, I felt a little bit sorry and5what I did to him. In fact, he was always so nice and I remembered him being6to help me whenever I had difficulties. What should I do?
Maybe I should say sorry to him,7it seemed too difficult for me. I tried to, but the words "excuse me" stuck in my throat. I said8at last.
After school, while I was walking back home alone, I discovered Henry9me. Wondering what Henry would do to me, I stopped,10him, a ruler in hand. He stepped forward. I raised my ruler, trying to show him I was not afraid." No, David,"11a kind smile, he waved my ruler aside." Let's be friends as before." I stood still in12.
"We'll have no more13, will we?"
"Sure, never again!" I said in excitement,14nodding my head. Looking at the ruler in my hand, I15it in two.
The ruler, though now in half, will forever be a reminder for me not to misunderstand a friend.
Red noses are usually for clowns. But in the UK, there is a Red Nose Day(RND). It's the day when people across the land get together to raise money for the poor in the UK and Africa. It is a huge charity event in the UK. Every two years in spring, huge slogans for RND can be seen all around. On that day, many English people put on a red nose, make a fool of themselves and do 'silly' things to make themselves and others laugh. Examples of 'silly' things you can do are:
Invite friends round to your house to watch funny films. They have to pay to watch the films —those with the most comfortable chairs pay more — and for food and drinks.
Hold a talent show at school and ask your friends and teachers to sing, dance or tell jokes. Sell tickets for the show to the rest of the school.
Have a 'red nose party' at your house. All your friends come dressed in red - of course with a red nose - and you serve red foods and drinks. If they don't wear red, they have to pay a fine, which goes to help the people in need."
Get the students at your school to make funny sculptures, using all kinds of art materials. Sell tickets to your Red Nose Day exhibition.
People can buy a red nose at supermarkets，and part of the money goes to Comic Relief, an organization that helps people in need. The organization has helped people for more than 20 years now. And how much money have they collected? More than f600 million! The idea of Red Nose Day has travelled to other countries too. In New Zealand, for example, people have made big red noses which they put on the fronts of cars and even buildings!
Once a circle missed a piece. The circle was unhappy and wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But it was not complete and therefore could roll only very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers along the way. It talked with ants. It enjoyed the sunshine.
It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit, some too square, some too big, some too small. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on searching. The circle kept going, up and down the mountains, across the sea. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. Now it could be whole, with nothing missing. It got the missing piece into itself and began to roll. Now that it was a perfect circle, and it could roll very fast, too fast to notice the flowers or talk to the ants. When it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.
Just like the circle, we are in some ways more whole when we are missing something. A man might have everything, but he is in some ways a poor man. If he has everything, he will never have the chance to know what it feels like to hope, to enrich his mind by dreaming of something better. There is a wholeness about the person if he accepts his disadvantages and is brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and not cry for doing so. There is a wholeness about the man or woman who is strong enough to lose someone or something and still feel like a complete person.
That, I believe, is what God asks of us—not "Be perfect", not "Don't even make a mistake", but "Be whole."
①By making mistakes.
②By letting go of dreams.
③By accepting his disadvantages.
④By dreaming of something better.
