22、A friend wrote me a letter a few weeks ago. He felt hopeless at the time. He ended his letter with this question, “We can’t really change this crazy world we live in, can we?” I replied to him and started my own letter with these words, “Yes, we most certainly can!”
I can still remember someone who changed my world. She was a music teacher at my primary school. She was good at playing the guitar. I wanted to impress her. However, I didn’t know how to play any instruments.
One day, she let me try playing her guitar. I did my best, but could only sturmble along. When I was done, I put my head down. “I guess I am not very good, ” I told her. She looked at me with her kind eyes, smiled at me and said, “We are all good at something. You just need to find out what you are good at. Then, you can share it with the world.”
Those simple words changed me. They planted a seed(种子) in my soul that continues to grow to this day. They made me realize that I had something good inside me. I just had to find it and share it.
Can you change the world? Yes, you can! You can change it through one choice, one person, or one kind act at a time. All you have to do is share your goodness. Mother Teresa once said, “God doesn’t ask us to do great things, only small things with great love.” So make your love great!

23、Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer. The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it.
However, he went to work at an orphanage (孤儿院) in Nepal. His first thought was to make people impressed.
“I thought that if I volunteered just once, I could retell the story over and over,” Grennan said in the Huffington Post.
However, his three-month stay in the orphanage turned into an unusual experience. It was in 2018 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year’s long around-the-world trip. His first three months were spent in Nepal.
When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture. When he opened the gate of the Little Princes Children’s Home, he was faced by the excited children.
The young American ended up caring for 18 children. He later discovered that they were trafficked (被拐卖的) children. So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids’ families. “I started walking with photos of the kids,” he told the Reuter’s reporter. “I would show up in villages and show photographs around. I went with 24 photos, and I found 24 families.”
At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.
Grennan said, “Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives.”
He also encouraged others to do what he had done. He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.
Grennan’s fight against child-trafficking has changed him. His book, Little Prince, came out last week.

24、The wonderful medicine

I'm not going to charge you twenty-five dollars a bottle. No. ladies and gentlemen. I'm going to charge you just ten dollars a bottle. Think, my friends, for ten dollars you can live forever.”

One person shouted, “If it will make you live forever, why don't you drink it?”
Another person cried, “Yes, you look as if you are at least sixty years old.”
“Thank you, sir, thank you.” the man replied. “I'm so glad you said that. My real age is three hundred and twenty-nine.”
The crowd laughed at this, but there were still a few people who wanted to believe the man. One of them spoke to the man's assistant as she passed by. “Is that true?” he asked, “that he's three hundred and twenty-nine?”
