God replied, “Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will take care of you.” But the child wasn’t sure he really wanted to go. “But here I don’t do anything else but sing and smile, that’s enough for me to be happy.”
“Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel’s love and be happy.”
“And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me, ”the child continued,”if I don’t know the language that men talk? ”
God patted (轻怕)him on the head and said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear.Your angel will teach you how to speak. ”
“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”
But God had an answer for that question too. “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray(祈祷). ”
“I’ve heard that on earth there are bad men,who will protect me? ”
“Your angel will defend(保卫)you even if it means risking her life! ”
“But I will always be sad because I will not see you any more, ”the child continued warily.
God smiled on the young one. “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you how to come back to me, even though I will always be with you.”
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question, softly, “God, please tell me my angel’s name.”

Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie"s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock (码头), feet dangling (摇晃), and got ready for a big meal. Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we"d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, and most seed-free part — and throw away the rest.
Bernie was my father"s ideal of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie"s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.
What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don"t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.
For many years, I forgot that lesson I"d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.
Well, I"ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That"s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.
