Don’t judge a book by its cover
Introduction
I am going to tell you a true story that
happened to me. This story has given me more knowledge about love and also I
want to share it with you to let you know how touched I felt.
I hummed while walking down the road that I
usually use and went into a 7-11. “Ding-Ding” the door opened automatically and
a gentle breeze of air conditioning cooled my face.
I couldn’t wait to enjoy my favorite iced
tea to refresh myself. Mm… so good! While sitting at a bar in the dining area
and looking outside the store through the windows, I watched people come in and
out.
All of a sudden, a strange-looking man came
in and drew my full attention. He was wearing a dirty brown jacket, patched
jeans and split shoes and looked like a homeless man.
Quickly I noticed that he smelled. “Oh! How
disgusting the smell is” “Is he here for air conditioning?” I thought in my
mind.
All the customers in the store were staring
at him but said nothing. Some of them were frowning and some were stepping back
from him.
Even few of the customers covered their
noses impolitely because of the unpleasant smell from him.
However, the man wasn’t affected by anyone
at all and went to the counter to pay for the food he had picked out.
When he walked outside the store, he looked
like he was looking for something.
After a few minutes, a little blonde-haired
dog wave its tail and came to him. He shared the food with it and touched it
gently. He was smiling and had a happy face with joy and relief.
When I realized what happened exactly, I
was regretful and ashamed of myself that I judged him by his appearance. Though
the homeless man may only own little, he still shared what he had and his love
with other.
