摘要：有一个劳改犯人在外出修路的过程中，在路上捡到了1000元钱。他不假思索的把它交了上去。

A prisoner picked up 1,000yuan in the course of building the road outside the prison. He handed it out without hesitation. However, someone in charge of the prison said to him in contempt, “Stop cheating! With your own money, play such a trick to bribe me; what you want to gain back is the reduced sentence; people of your sort are not honest.”

In total despair, the prisoner believed that no one in the world would trust him any more. So he escaped from prison that night.

On his way to flight, he plundered money and values without restraint. After plundering enough pelf, he took a train bound for the border. The carriages were so crowded that he had to stand close to a water closet. At this moment, a quite beautiful girl walked into the closet, and found that the latch was broken when she closed the door. She stepped out and whispered to him, “Sir, could you guard the door for me?”

In a daze for a second, he, looking into the pure eyes of the girl, nodded his head. The girl went into the closet with a blush; and he guarded the door tightly like a loyal guard.

At that very moment, he changed his mind suddenly. At the next stop he got off the train, and went to give himself up to the police at the train station.

Trust is the most precious thing in this world. It cannot be bought, or gained by lure or force. It comes deep from one’s soul, and lives in the clear spring of the soul. It can redeem the soul and make the soul and make the heart full of purity and confidence.

有一个劳改犯人在外出修路的过程中，在路上捡到了1000元钱。他不假思索的把它交了上去。可是，有人却轻蔑的对他说：“你别来这一套，拿自己的钱，变着花样贿赂我，想换减刑的资本，你们这号人就是不老实。”

囚犯万念俱灰，心想，这世界上再也不会有人相信他了。晚上，他越狱了。

在亡命的途中，他大肆抢劫钱财，准备外逃。在抢得足够的钱财后，他乘上开往边境的火车。火车上很挤，他只好站在厕所旁。这时，有一位十分漂亮的姑娘走进厕所，关门时却发现门扣坏了。她走出来，轻声对他说：“先生，你能为我把门吗？”

他一愣，看着姑娘纯洁的眼神，他点点头，姑娘红着脸进了厕所。而他像个忠诚的卫士一样，严守着门。

在那一刹那，他突然改变了主意。到了下一站，他下车了，到车站派出所投案自首。

在这世界上，信任是一种弥足珍贵的东西，没有人能用金钱买得到，也没有人可用利诱和武力争取得到，它来自一个人的灵魂深处，也活在灵魂里的清泉，它可以拯救灵魂，让心灵充满纯洁和自信。
