A young and successful boss was traveling down on the street,going a bit too fast in his new car.He was watching for kids coming out from parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.As his car passed,one child appeared,and a brick(磚) knocked(撞擊) into the car's side door.He drove the car back to the place from where the brick had been thrown.He jumped out of the car,grabbed(抓?。﹖he kid and pushed him up against a parked car,shouting,
"What was that all about and who are you?Just what are you doing? "
He was so angry and went on "That's a new car and that brick you threw is gonna cost a lot of money.Why did you do it?"
"Please,I'm sorry.I didn't know what else to do!" said the kid.
"It's my brother," he said. "He fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.
Sobbing,the kid asked the boss, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair?He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words,the driver lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the cuts,checking to see that everything was going to be okay.
"Thank you,sir.And God bless you," the grateful child said to him.
The man then watched the little boy push his brother to the sidewalk toward their home.It was a long walk back to his car...a long,slow walk.He never did repair the side door.He kept the dent(凹痕) to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention.Life whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart.
Sometimes,when you don't have the time to listen...Life throws a brick at your head.It's your choice:Listen to the whispers of your soul or wait for the brick!Do you sometimes ignore loved ones because your life is too fast and busy leaving them to wonder whether you really love them?
