I will never forget the lessen which Mr. Ligave us. One day Mr. Li was speaking to us inour school meeting room. He began his speechby holding up a￥100 bill. He asked， \"Whowould like this￥ 100 bill？\"

Most of us put up our hands quickly. Thenhe said， \"I am going to give this￥ 100 to oneof you， but first let me do this.\" He then madethe bill into a ball and said; \"Who wants itnow？\" We raised our hands again. But hesaid， \"Wait a moment.\" He then dropped it onthe floor and stepped on it. After that， he pickedup the dirty bill and said，

\"Who still wants it？\" Many hands werestill up.

\"My friends，\" he said， \"you have learneda valuable lesson today. No matter what I did tothe money， you still wanted it because it did notgo down in value. It was still worth￥ 100. \"

“We always lose many chances we take inour lives. \"He went on speaking， \"We feel as ifwe are worth nothing. But remember， no matterwhat has happened to you， you will never loseyour value： you are always valuable to thosepeople who love you. Your value doesn' t comefrom what you do or who you know. but WHOYOU ARE. \"

\"You are special and valuable. Don ' t everforget it！ \"

我難以忘懷李老師給我們上的那一課。有一天，他在學(xué)校的會(huì)議室給我們做了一次演講。他手持一百元，開始了他的講話?！罢l想要這100元？”他問道。

絕大部分的學(xué)生迅速舉手。接下來，他說：“我會(huì)把這一百元給你們之中的一個(gè)人，但是，我先得做點(diǎn)什么。”他將這張鈔票揉成一團(tuán)后，說道：“現(xiàn)在，誰還要這100元？”學(xué)生再一次舉起手來。但是，他又說：“請(qǐng)稍等片刻。”他將鈔票扔到地上，用腳踩它，之后，他拾起這張臟了的鈔票問道：

“誰還要它？”很多人依然舉手。

“我的孩子們”，他說道，“今天，你們學(xué)到了寶貴的一課。不管我怎么對(duì)待這張鈔票，你們依然想要得到它，這是因?yàn)槲也]有貶低它的價(jià)值。它仍然是一張價(jià)值一百元的鈔票?！?/p>

“我們總是與生命中許多機(jī)會(huì)失之交臂?！彼又f道，“我們覺得自己沒有價(jià)值，但是，要牢記，無論發(fā)生什么，我們的價(jià)值仍然存在，對(duì)于愛著你的人們來說，你有很大的價(jià)值，你的價(jià)值并不來源于你做了什么還是你認(rèn)識(shí)什么人，僅僅來源與你自身?！?/p>

“別忘了，你是珍貴而特殊的存在?！?/p>
