When was the last time you used a phone booth on the street? With the rise of mobile phones, they have become something out of date. But Shanghai is trying to bring new life to the old phone booths by turning them into mini-libraries.

Shanghai plans to divide 263 phone booths in Xuhui District into six new types. One type will each offer 60 books for people to read or borrow. A second type will allow users to listen to audiobooks and even record their own voices. A third type will become “Celebrity Exhibition Halls (名人亭)”, showing old photos and works of famous artists like Ba Jin and Zhang Leping.

Shanghai is not the only city trying to save the old phone booths. The British care about them even more, since the red phone booths have long been a part of the country’s identity*. The world’s first phone booth was built in the 1880s in Germany. But in the 1930s the UK painted them red and made them a special attraction in cities.

In recent years the country has come up with many ideas to help phone booths stay useful. The UK company British Telecom has added screens and free WiFi to some booths. Users can use them to surf online and search for maps and weather reports. The company also allows people to rent some booths to change them as they want to. Since 2009, more than 1,500 phone booths have been turned into flower shops, mini-cafés, art museums and even shower rooms, according to the Sina News. Besides, the town has made it into a museum to show visitors the local history. Today the phone booths is filled with photographs, ancient jewelry, and paintings, which anyone can stop in to admire. Every three months, they will change for a new theme.

Maybe in the future phone booths will become city attractions once again, but in a more creative way.

She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, beautiful and innocent*. Outside, it was pouring so heavily.

We all stood there just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We waited, some patiently, others annoyed because nature messed up their hurried day. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world.

Her voice was so sweet that it woke me up.

“Mom, let’s run through the rain,” she said.

“No, honey. We’ll wait until it slows down a bit,” Mom replied.

Waiting about another minute, the young child repeated: “Mom, let’s run through the rain. ”

“We’ll get soaked if we do,” Mom said.

“No, we won’t, Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said, pulling her Mom’s arm.

“This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”

“Don’t you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer*, you said if God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!”

All the people stopped dead silent. You couldn’t hear anything but the rain. No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say.

Now some would laugh it off or tell her not to be silly. Some might even pay attention to what was said. But this was a moment in a young child’s lifetime that some innocent trust may bloom into faith. “ Honey, you are right. Let’s run through the rain. If get wet, well, maybe we just need washing, ” Mom said. Then off they ran.

We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they rushed past the cars and they held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.

You may lose what you have, your money and even your health, but no one can ever take away your valuable memories. So don’t forget to make time and take the chance to make memories.
