来源 :华课网校 2019-07-22

  Like most people,1 was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting It was not until in my late thirties that 1 made this important discovery:giving-away makes life so much more exciting You need not worry if you lack money This is how 1 experimented with giving-away.If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me,I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper.One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back,though the return often comes in all unexpected form.One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home,though it was addressed to me at my Office.1 wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation More than a year later I needed a post—office box for a new business 1 was starting 1 was told at the window that there were no boxes left,and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list.As 1 was about to leave,the postmaster appeared in the doorway.He had overheard(无意中听到)our conversation.“Wasn’t it you that wrote US that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?”I said yes“Well,you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you.You don’t know what a letter like that means to us.

  36-40 ACBCD

  和大多数人一样,我从小被灌输的是生命是一个不断获取的过程。直到我30多岁快40的时候,有了这么一个重要的发现:给予使生命更加精彩。就算你没有钱也无需担忧做不到。我是这么尝试给予的。如果可以改善附近一家铺子橱窗摆设的好点子忽然闪现在我的脑海中,我会走进这间店铺,和店主说说的建议。对于给予我的一大发现是,付出总有回报,不过有的时候回报的形式是你始料未及的。、一个周日的早晨,当地的邮局往我家送了一封重要的特快专递,其实信封上写的是我办公室的地址,信却被专门送到家里。为此我给邮政局长写了一封感谢信。一年多过去了,我由于新业务的开展去邮局申请新的邮箱。但是我被告知暂时没有多余的信箱了,要等的话也要排很长的名单才能轮到我。当我打算离开邮局的时候,无意中听到我们谈话的邮政局长出现在门口。他问我:“是不是你一年前写了封感谢我们特快专递服务的信啊?”我说是。他继续说:“你当然马上就能拥有一个信箱了,我们这就给你弄一个。你不了解这种感谢信对我们意义多么大。通常我们除了抱怨什么也得不到。”
