Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together:piano lessons,movies,swimming,horseback riding.

When I was 13,my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters,and we saw each other on special times—like my wedding(婚礼) and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes,and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back,stamped “Address(地址) Unknown” I had no idea how to find Linda.

Over the years,I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share(分享) happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.

One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman—Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought,but I still wrote to her.

She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs.Tobin!”she said excitedly,“Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”

Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much,even after 40 years,laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure:We won’t lose each other again!

There once lived a rich businessman who had a lazy son. The businessman wanted his son to realize the value of labour and said: “Today, I want you to go out and earn something, failing which you won’t have your meals tonight.”
He went crying straight to his mother. Her heart melted at her son’s eyes. She gave him a gold coin. When the father asked his son what he had earned, the son presented him the gold coin. The father asked him to throw it into a well.
The next day, he asked his son to earn something. This time he went crying to his sister who gave him a coin. When he showed it to his father he again asked him to throw it in a well. Then the father asked him to earn more money.
This time since there was no one to help him, the son was forced to go to the market. One shopkeeper told him he would pay him two coins if he carried his trunk to his house. He did so and sweated plenty. As he returned home he was asked to do the same. The son almost cried out. He could not imagine throwing his hard-earned money like this. He cried, “My entire body is aching. You are asking me to throw the money into the well.”
At this moment, the businessman told him one feels the pain only when the fruits of hard labour are wasted. On the earlier two occasions he was helped and therefore had no pain in throwing the coins into the well. The son had now realized the value of hard work.
