the AIDS virus. I was asked to attend because I am on a TV show. I went there because I care.
At the party, they had all kinds of small rooms. I got into a special one. In this room, anyone could paint
a square. They gave everyone paints in bright, beautiful colours and asked the kids to paint something beautiful.
As I looked around at all the squares, I saw the pictures were all bright, except one.
The boy sitting next to me was painting a heart, but it was dark, empty, and lifeless. It lacked the bright
colours that other children used.
At first I thought maybe he took the only paint that was left and it just happened to be dark. But when I
asked him about it, he said his heart was that colour because his own heart felt dark. I asked him why and
he told me that he was very sick and his mother was very sick, too. He said that his sickness was not ever
going to get better and neither was his mother"s. He looked straight into my eyes and said, "There is nothing
anyone can do to help."
I told him I was sorry that he was sick and I could certainly understand why he was so sad. I could even
understand why he had made his heart a dark colour. But I told him that it isn"t true that there is nothing
anyone can do to help. Other people may not make him or his mother better but we can do things like giving
him or her hugs. Then I hugged him for a long time. I thought my own heart would burst with the love I felt
for this sweet little boy. After that, I asked him if he felt any better. He said he did, but he was still sick and
nothing would change that. I walked away feeling sad.
As I was getting ready to head home, I felt a tug on my jacket. I turned around and the little boy was
standing there with a smile on his face. He told me, "My heart is changing colours. It is getting brighter.
I think those hugs really work."
On my way home, I felt my own heart had changed to a brighter colour.

| On my first day of high school, I saw a boy from my class walking back home after school. His name was David. He was carrying his books. As I was walking, I saw a group of kids running toward him, knocking all his books out of his hands. And then they ran away. David fell down and his glasses went flying. He looked up and I saw sadness in his eyes. I helped him to look for his glasses and said. "The kids with bad manners should be punished." There was a big smile that showed real gratitude (感激) on his face. From then on, we became friends. The more I got to know David, the more I liked him. Over the next four years, we always studied, played together and had a happy time. On graduation (毕业) day, I could see that he was nervous about his speech. So I said, "Hey, you will be the best!" Then he began, "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you succeed through those difficult years. Our parents, our teachers, but mostly our friends. Being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I"ll tell you a story…" I just looked at the handsome popular boy in amazement as he told the story of the first day we met. Everyone was surprised to hear all about his hardest moment. I saw his Mom and Dad looking at me and smiling that same thankful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its deep meaning. Never underestimate (低估) the power of your actions. With one small action, you can change a persons life. As you can see, friends are angels (天使) to make us rise when our wings (翅膀) have problems flying. | |||
