Many years ago, an earthquake happened suddenly. A lot of buildings
collapsed(倒塌)。 It killed over 100,000 people in a few minutes. Shortly
after the earthquake, a father rushed to the school where his son studied
only to find the building had fallen down. He remembered his promise to
his son:“No matter what happens, I’ll always be there for you!”
The tearful father began to dig to look for his son. Some parents
felt hopeless and tried to pull him off. But he asked,“Are you going
to help me now?”And then he kept on digging. The fireman came.
They tried to pull off and said,“Danger! Leave here!” But the
father who loved his son deeply,asked,“Are you going to help me now?”
The policeman came up and said,“It’s over.Leave here!We’ll do it.”
Still he asked again and again,“Are you going to help me now?”
He went on alone because he needed to know,“Is my boy alive or
is he dead?” He dug for 8 hours…12 hours…24hours…36hours…then, in the 38th hours, he pulled back a large stone And heard his son’s voice. He cried,“Tom!”He heard back,“Dad? It’s me, Dad! I told other kids you’d save me. I believe you would keep your promise.”“Get out, boy!”“No dad! Let the other kids out first. Because I know you’ll get me out! No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!”

A man and a woman had a son many years after they married. They had a happy family and the boy was the apple of their eyes. When the boy was four years old, an accident happened. One night the father was very tired after work, so he asked his wife to meet their son and take him home. The mother was very busy in the kitchen, and she forgot about it.
Later the boy lost his way in the street. When the mother found this, she went to look for him, but she couldn’t find him. Then she went to the police station to ask for help. She was very sad and didn’t know how to face her husband. After hearing the bad news, the father hurried to the police station. When he saw his wife, he didn’t blame(責(zé)備) her. Instead he said, “I love you, darling!”
“If I had picked him up or found this earlier, this would not have happened,” the father said to himself. He thought there was no point in blaming anyone. His wife also lost her only child. What he could give her was just understanding. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, they finally found their lost son. From then on, they became closer than before.
When something bad happens, people always spend lots of time blaming others instead of giving them support. Try to learn to forgive(原諒), and then you will find the world is much more wonderful.
