In front of my daughter Sindu was a bowl filled with
cabbage. She cabbage. She sat there in
silence with tears(眼泪)in her eyes.
“Sindu,
darling, why don’t you a
little? Your Mom will shout at me.”
Sindu wiped (擦) her tears
with the back of her hand.
“OK, Dad. I’ll
eat, just a .” Then Sindu said: “Dad,
if I eat it all, will you give me what I want?”
“Yes, within
reason.”
she began to eat. It took her almost
half an hour to finish the . Then she came up to me
and said: “Dad, I want to have my head shaved (剃)!”
“Sindu, why
don’t you something else? If we see
you with a clean-shaved head, we will be ,”
I said.
“But, Dad, you
! Now, you are going back on your
words.”
I had to my
promise. Sindu had all her hair cut off. She looked beautiful
On Monday morning, I took her to school. Just as we ,
a boy got out of a car, and shouted, “Sindu, please wait for me!”
Guess what? The boy had hair
either.
“Sir, your
daughter is !” A man got out of the
car and said, “That boy is my son Harish. He has cancer. He lost his hair
he got ill. Sindu cut hers off, so Harish
would feel less . She’s a special
girl.”
I stood for a while, then said “My little girl, you are me
how selfless (无私的) real love is!”
