A friend forwarded this
beautiful story to me. Very
inspiring*** please read and
be inspired. I was born in a
secluded village on a
mountain. Day by day, my parents plowed the yellow
dry soil with their backs
towards the sky. I have a
brother who is 3 years
younger than me. I wanted
to buy a handkerchief, which all girls around me
seemed to have. So, one day
I stole 50 cents from my
father's drawer. Father had
discovered about the stolen
money right away. He made me and my younger brother
kneel against the wall as he
held a bamboo stick in his
hand. "Who stole the
money?" he asked. I was
stunned, too afraid to talk. Neither of us admitted to the
fault, so he said, "Fine, if
nobody wants to admit, you
two should be beaten!" He
lifted up the bamboo stick.
Suddenly, my younger brother gripped father's
hand and said,
"Dad, I was the one who did
it!" The long stick smacked
my brother's back
repeatedly. Father was so angry that he kept on
whipping my brother until
he lost his breath. After that,
he sat down on our stone
bed and scolded my brother,
"You have learned to steal from your own house now.
What other embarrassing
things will you be possibly
be doing in the future? You
should be beaten to death,
you shameless thief!" That night, my mother and I
hugged my brother. His
body was full of wounds
from the beating but he
never shed a single tear. In
the middle of the night, all of sudden, I cried out loudly.
My brother covered my
mouth with his little hand
and said, Sis, now don't cry
anymore. Everything has
happened." I still hate myself for not having enough
