Question

I work as a volunteer for an organization that helps the poor in Haiti. Recently I took my son Brain there for a week, hoping to educate him.

Before setting out, I told Brain this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. Then, on the third day, as we were climbing over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and grinned(咧嘴笑), “Pretty hard. ”

After that there was no turning back. A five-year-old girl, wearing a too large dress and broken shoes, followed Brain around, Later he said regretfully(遗憾地). “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised that this was from a boy who always hated French classes .

However, the moment that really reached my heart occurred in a village deep in the mountains. I was interviewing a woman villager for an article. By working hard,, she had learned to read and write, and became part of the leadership(领导层) of the village.

Learning her story, Brain was greatly touched. His eyes were wet and there was love and respect(尊敬) on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Brain even offered to stay in as a volunteer. The trip was very meaningful.
