Honesty
comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real
article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be
something I’m not. I feel unsure of
myself and take out a part from my PBA(personal bank account). I love how
singer Judy Garland put it. “Always
be a first-class version(版本)of yourself, instead of a
second-class version of somebody else. ”
Then
there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents,
and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try
being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do
wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that:
In my second year of study, there were
three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I
would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d
write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.
At first I felt like I was making money,
kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After
a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping
them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the
road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.
It takes
courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating
on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every
act of honesty is a deposit(储蓄) into your PBA and will
build strength.

July 21st.
2007 was a typical English
summer’s day - it rained for 24 hours ! As usual, I rushed home from work at
midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I left work
at 5pm. However, the road into our
village was flooded. Our house had never been flooded but, as I opened the
front door. a wave of waters
greeted me. Thank God the kids weren’t wish me, because the house was 5 feet
deep in water. We lost everything downstairs. And the plaster had to be torn
off the wall’s ceilings pulled down.
At first
we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of
home. so we camped upstairs. We put
a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after
three months, we felt very sick, so we move to a wooden house in a park. The
house was small. but at first we
were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer
than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient.
What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community(社区). We had lived in
a friendly village with good neighbors, and I’d never thought how much I,I’d miss that.
Although
our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when
you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in
Northern India and thought. “We didn’t have a straw hut(茅草房)that was for
Christmas. But I can’t wait - I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the
village to say thanks for their support. This year, I won’t need any gifts -
living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually
need or miss all our possessions. Although we are replacing things, there’s
really no rush - we have our home back.
and that’s the main thing.
