日期:2018-06-01 09:27

(单词翻译:单击)

有一次和朋友聊天,忽然看到了一个小孩,大概两三岁的样子,一直冲着我们笑。我们也非常开心的和这位小朋友打了招呼。随后朋友说道:你知道为什么小孩子那么可爱吗?因为他们的眼睛实在是太好看了,清澈透亮。而眼睛就是心灵的窗户,所以他们才会那么可爱。
对于孩子们来说,他们的世界单纯而美好。只要有家人的怀抱,好吃好玩的,还有和朋友们一起玩耍,就足以让任何一个小孩绽放出天使般的笑容。缺失其中任何一样,对于孩子们来说,都不足以拥有幸福的童年。今天要分享的这个故事,讲述的就是一个小女孩意外的善举。对小女孩来说,可能只是发自内心的不经意间的善意,但是却让一个小男孩收获了更加幸福的童年。
