英语温馨夜读I PART3 10 Kiss In A Box 盒子中的吻

[00:00.97]Kiss In A Box 盒子中的吻 [00:06.00]The story goes that some time ago, [00:09.21]a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. [00:15.63]Money was tight and he became infuriated [00:19.52]when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. [00:24.27]Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning [00:29.51]and said, “This is for you, Daddy.” [00:32.61]He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, [00:36.73]but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. [00:40.91]He yelled at her, “Don’t you know that when you give someone a present, [00:45.78]there’s supposed to be something inside it?” [00:48.89]The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, [00:53.68]“Oh, Daddy, it is not empty. [00:58.08]I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy.” [01:03.00]The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, [01:08.41]and he begged for her forgiveness. [01:10.88]It is told that the man kept that gold box by his bed for years [01:16.17]and whenever he was discouraged, [01:18.54]he would take out an imaginary kiss [01:21.13]and remember the love of the child who had put it there. [01:24.45]In a very real sense, each of us as humans have been given a gold container [01:31.09]filled with unconditional love and kisses [01:34.19]from our children, friends and family. [01:36.70]There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.
