Look Around You

A very special high school teacher, whose husband died of sudden heart attack. About a week after his death, she put her thoughts to share with whole class. Afternoon sun exposure through the windows of the classroom came about after school, and she put something on the talk table and sat down.
Her face with a gentle expression, slightly paused, then began his speech: "In school, I would like you to share a very important I think that idea. Every one of us living on Earth, learning, sharing, caring for others, appreciation and self-pay ... ... but no one knows this better experience when it will end. It could be taken away at any time. Perhaps this indicates that we must make maximum use of every day. "
The beginning of her eyes moist, she added: "Therefore, I want you to send me a swear ... ... From now on, in your school or school on the road, it is necessary to find some beautiful things. It is not necessarily you see a thing - it may be a scent - perhaps the smell of fresh baked bread from the room of a float out, perhaps the breeze leaves the voice of the breeze, or irradiation Chenguang transmission out on the ground in autumn Ye way. ask you to look for these things and remember them now.
Because, despite the sounds stupid, these things are part of life. Is that we stay on Earth want to share some small things. We often think that these things for granted. We must pay attention to them, this is very important because even when ... ... it was taken away. "
Very quiet throughout the classroom. We all put textbooks, collated quietly out of the classroom. That afternoon, his way home from school I have noticed a lot of things, than I found the whole semester than things. From time to time, I would have thought that the teacher, recalled her left us with a deep impression, I will make every effort to enjoy and sometimes we have to ignore things.
Dinner at noon today when the focus on what you see special things. Ah walk barefoot. Or sunset stroll on the beach. Way home tonight, watching carefully to taste like ice cream, egg rolls. Because as we age is not done we should regret, but those who do not have to do.
