問題詳情:
Not long ago, I answered a telephone call from an old friend Jack. “Hi, Steve,” he said,” I just wanted to see how you are getting along.” For whatever reason, for months our paths had simply not crossed. It was good to talk with him. I wondered why we hadn’t kept in touch better. Towards the end of the conversation, he said, “If you need me in any way, I will be happy to help out.” And he meant it.
That call came at just the right time. That time, I had just about reached the lowest point in my life. I lost my job because of my poor performance, but I really needed the job to support the family. I needed those words of encouragement. The phone did it. I hung up the phone feeling real warmth in my chest.
And that day I re-learned something important about life: life is mainly about people---not plans and schedules, not to-do lists and a million tasks left undone---it’s about people.
My friend reminded me that it is never enough just to love; we must also express it. He advised me to share my trouble with my wife or even my children. He would like to have phone calls and be my listener. What good is our love toward others if we don’t find ways to let them know?
George William Childs said like this: Do not keep the box of your love and friendship sealed(封閉) up until your friends are dead. Fill their lives with sweetness. Speak cheering words while their ears can hear them and while their hearts can be made happier. Say the kind things you mean to say before they go. Happiness may be just a phone call away.
