AN 8-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him.
One morning, the girl heard her father say to her mother: “Only a miracle can save Andrew now.” The girl went to her bedroom, collected all of her money and counted it carefully. She hurried to a drugstore (药房).
“How can I help you?” asked the salesman (售货员).
“I want to buy a miracle,” the girl answered. “My brother has something bad growing inside his head. My daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”
“We don’t sell miracles here, my dear. I’m so sorry,” the salesman said, sadly.
“What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” asked a well-dressed man standing nearby.
“I don’t know,” she answered. “He’s really sick and needs an operation in his head. So I brought all my money.”
“How much do you have?” asked the man.
“$1.11,” she answered.
“Well, what luck,” said the man. “$1.11 is the price of a miracle. Let’s go to see your brother.”
That man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous brain doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn’t long before Andrew was well again. Sometimes miracles do happen.

THERE was once a young man who, after some small achievements, began to feel self-satisfied (自满的).
One day, the young man took a walk with a wise man from the town. On the way the young man was bragging (吹牛) about himself, but the wise man didn’t say a word. “Look downward, what do you see?” asked the wise man once they got to a peak (山顶).
“I see trees, farmland, houses and people as small as ants working in the fields (田野),” the young man said.
“What do you feel?” the wise man asked.
“Everything is below me. I feel like I rule the Earth,” the young man answered.
The wise man said nothing. After a minute, he asked the young man to look up. “What do you see this time?” the wise man asked.
“I see birds flying around high mountains, the white clouds on the mountains and the blue sky above the white clouds,” the young man answered.
Then he asked the wise man’s feelings.
“I feel small and powerless,” the wise man answered. “A person who knows to look upward can clearly understand his position. A person who knows the blue sky is always overhead won’t be so foolish as to believe he rules over the Earth or any other people.”
The young man felt foolish for his pride. From then on, whenever he began to feel as if the world owed him something, he looked up at the sky and remembered how small he really was.
