装满吻得空盒子 - 情感前线

 天天可乐 2009-12-08
Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the family's only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

从前,有个人惩罚他的女儿, 因为她把家里仅有的一卷昂贵的金纸用光了。 当时家里经济拮据,又是在圣诞前夜,这位父亲看到女儿把金纸糊在一个鞋盒子上放在圣诞树下,这使得他更加沮丧。


Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.
But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Don't you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package!"


然而第二天早上小女孩充满激情地把礼盒呈到父亲面前说“爸爸,这是给你的!”
父亲开启着盒子,并为自己曾经的过激感到羞愧。但当他打开盒子,发现那里面是空的,他再次恼怒了“难道你不懂吗,小姐,假如你送给别人礼物”他严厉的说道,“应该有东西放在包装之内而不是送个空盒子!"


The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.
小女孩仰头看着父亲,眼泪在眼圈里打转:“爸爸,它不是空的,我往里面放了很多的吻直到盒子完全满了。” 父亲怔住了心都要碎了,他跪下来用双臂抱住面前这个珍贵的小女儿,请求她原谅自己那些多余的愤怒。

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

不久,一场车祸带走了小女孩的生命。那位父亲据说一生都将那个金色的小盒子保管在他的床边。无论何时当他气馁当他遇到困难,他都会打开盒子,取出一个想象中的吻,记起他美丽的小女儿放在那里的爱。

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible gold box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

在某种意义上,非常肯定的说,我们每个人都曾被赐予一个看不见的金盒子,里面装满了来自我们的孩子,家庭,朋友以及上帝的无条件的爱和吻。
任何人不会拥有比这更珍贵的财富了。
