A Sunday school teacher was telling her pupils the importance of making others glad. "Now, children," said she , "has anyone of you ever make someone else glad?"
"Please, teacher,"said a small boy,"I've make someone glad yesterday."
"Well done. Who was that?"
"My granny."
"Good boy. Now tell us how you made your grandmother glad."
"Please, teacher, I went to see her yesterday, and stayed with her three hours. Then I said to her, 'Granny, I'm going home,' and she said, 'Well, I'm glad'!" 一個主日學校校(基督教教會為了向兒童灌輸宗教思想, 在星期天開辦的兒童班)的老師在對學生講使別人高興的重要性。“現在,孩子們,”她說:“你們當中有誰讓別人高興過?”
“我,老師,”一個小男孩說:“昨天我就使別人高興過。”
“做得好,是誰呢?”
“我奶奶。”
“好孩子。現在告訴我們,你是怎樣使你奶奶高興的。”
“是這樣的,老師。我昨天去看她,在她那兒呆了三個小時。然後我跟她說:‘奶奶,我要回家了。’她說:‘啊,我很高興!
