Nine years ago around Christmas, I was on a Captiva Island beach at sunrise. I crouched (蹲) low there and was lost in the false hope of finding a treasure larger than the small on the shore.
A man ran slowly along the waves my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn’t him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his , a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in , and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it before me like a diamond, not my eyes.
“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his down the beach.I do not his voice, his clothes or even his face, I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I’ve ever . Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as as it was, but it is still there, a reminder that there is in the world.
That man saved my belief in the kindness of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is we have done for others. The shell is to me, as important as another man who returned to the plane to me my lost jacket.
I know that a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.

“These songs are beautiful music.” Dario’s mother said. “We will be to play them in the evening.”

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher? I do，mine．Her name was Mrs. White．And I thinking she must be some older relation of Walt Disney’s Snow White， she had the same bright blue eyes，short dark hair，red lips and fair skin．
I don't remember much about what we in her class，but my mother once told me that we used to a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she would look at it and see there were so many ．But no red corrections．And always a star．Sometimes a Good!But it my mother，so one day when she met Mrs．White at a Parent-Teacher meeting，she asked her why she never my mistakes．Why she never red-pencilled in the right of words or pointed out grammatical errors.
And Mrs．White said“The children are just beginning to get about using words，about forming sentences．I don't want to dampen that enthusiasm with ink．Spelling and grammar can wait but the wonder of words …”I grew up learning to use words with loving like that．
I now and think she must have been a rather teacher—to exercise such red-pen restraint(克制)，to the joy，wonder and excitement of expression to flower— however faultily—like that，because to bloom is better than not to bloom.
I used to beautiful a lot．Never could quite remember that the e went the a．Eventually the e and a settled into their right places．I am glad I didn’t wait on them though. Pretty is easier to spell but it doesn’t hold as much as you sometimes.
And thanks to Mrs．White I felt no about writing what I meant even if I couldn’t quite spell it out．Because Life isn’t Pretty．It’s Beautiful．

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were . Every day, my husband and his brothers would go about the hard of trying to get water to the fields. If we didn’t see some rain soon, we would lose everything.
It was on this day that I learned the true lesson of sharing and a miracle﹙奇迹﹚. I was in the kitchen making lunch when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods.
