[00:00.00]World of Smiles 微笑的世界 [00:06.17]About ten years ago [00:09.12]when I was an undergraduate in college, [00:11.42]I was working as an intern at my University’s Museum of Natural History. [00:15.90]One day while working at the cash register in the gift shop, [00:19.72]I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair. [00:23.90]As I looked closer at this girl, [00:26.41]I saw that she was kind of perched on her chair. [00:29.13]I then realized she had no arms or legs, [00:32.20]just a head, neck and torso. [00:34.49]She was wearing a little white dress with red polka dots. [00:37.89]As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register. [00:41.60]I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink. [00:44.88]As I took the money from her grandparents, [00:47.41]I looked back at the girl, [00:48.73]who was giving me the cutest, [00:50.35]largest smile I have ever seen. [00:52.21]All of a sudden her handicap was gone [00:54.73]and all I saw was this beautiful girl, [00:56.93]whose smile just melted me [00:59.10]and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about. [01:03.36]She took me from a poor, [01:05.45]unhappy college student and brought me into her world; [01:08.51]a world of smiles, love and warmth. [01:11.47]That was ten years ago. [01:13.54]I’m a successful business person now [01:16.06]and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world, [01:19.44]I think about that little girl [01:21.31]and the remarkable lesson about life that she taught me. |
