One day, a physically-deformed man came to our school and on his back was a notice saying “Free shoe repairing for college students.”

　　Repairing shoes free? Most of us didn't believe it, and some even thought that it was just device (诡计) to the students who would have to pay for the shoes once they had been repaired, but the man just smiled and said, “Save your money and buy some books.” These words really surprised me and I talked with him, “You need to make a living; why do you still repair shoes for us for free?” He answered, while keeping on working, “I am an illiterate (文盲) , but it is my pleasure to serve you. In my opinion, money isn't everything in life.”

　　He stopped for a moment and said, “I look down on those people who always cry. For example, when they themselves push their bodies into a bus, it is very common for people to help each other. But in recent years, people always look at me with an eye of surprise and say, 'Please wait for the next one.' I have to wait for the next... so I am with a wheelchair now!”

　　After the chat, I felt he was great compared with me. He ---a physically-deformed man who couldn't walk without a wheelchair, still tried his best to devote himself to society. I would like to thank this man, because he gave me a new direction in my life, and taught me how to know the true value of life.
