At a WalMart store, a cashier hands this little boy some money back.

The boy couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 years old.

The Cashier said,

'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll.'

Then the little boy turned to the old woman next to him,

''Granny, are you sure I don't have enough money?''

The old lady replied, '

'You know that you don't have enough money to buy this doll, my dear.''

Then she asked him to stay there for just 5 minutes while she went to look around.

She left quickly. The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand.

A lady walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to.

'It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for Christmas. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her.'

She replied to him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all, and not to worry.

But he replied back sadly.

'No, Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.'

His eyes were so sad while saying this,

'My Sister has gone to be with God. Dad dy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.''

My heart nearly stopped.

The little boy looked up at the lady and said,

'I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.'

Then he showed her a very nice photo of himself.

He was laughing.

He then told me

'I want mommy to take my picture with her so she won't forget me.'

'I love my mommy and I wish she didn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.'

Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly.

She quickly reached for her wallet and said to the boy.

'Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll!''

'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.'

She added some of her money to his without him seeing and they started to count it.

There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.

The little boy said,

'Thank you God for giving me enough money!'

Then he looked at the lady and added,

'I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy could give it to my sister. He heard me!''

'I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose.''

'My mommy loves white roses.'

A few minutes later, the boys granny returned and the lady left with her basket.

She finished her shopping in a totally different state of mind from when she started.

She couldn't get the little boy out of her mind.

Then she remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl.

The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine, because the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma.

Was this the family of the little boy?

Two days after this encounter with the little boy,

The woman read in the newspaper that the young woman had passed away.

She couldn't stop herself as she bought a bunch of white roses and went to the funeral home where the body of the young woman was for people to see and make last wishes before her burial.

She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over her chest.

She left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that her life had been changed forever.

The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine, and in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken all this away from him.

一封父親給女兒的遺書 & 十年後女兒的回信



一個有智慧的父親在往生前所寫下的一封信,
對於四歲的小女孩是這麼的彌足珍貴的回憶.....
但是.....
一封父親給女兒的遺書 & 十年後女兒的回信


給可愛的女兒：
爸爸和妳玩了好多次躲迷藏，每次都一下子就被妳找出來。
不過這一次，爸爸決定要躲好久好久。
妳先不要找，等妳十四歲（還要吃完十次蛋糕）的時候，再問媽咪
，爸爸躲在哪裡，好不好？
爸爸要躲這麼久，妳一定會想念爸爸，對不對？
不過，爸爸不能隨便跑出來，不然就輸了。
如果還是很想爸爸，爸爸就變魔法出現。
因為是魔法，不是真的出現，所以不犯規，爸爸不算輸。
爸爸的魔法是：趁妳睡覺的時候，跑到妳夢裡大玩遊戲；
在妳畫圖畫爸爸的時候，不管好不好看，妳覺得是爸爸，就是爸爸；
當妳拿爸爸的照片看時，爸爸也在偷偷的看妳……。
要記得，爸爸一直都陪著妳！妳已經是四歲的大姊姊了。
爸爸要拜託妳一件事，要妳照顧和孝順爺爺、奶奶和媽咪，
看妳是不是比爸爸以前做得好？
有多好，媽咪會告訴你的。
爸爸猜想，我們這一次玩躲迷藏要玩這麼久，爺爺、奶奶、媽咪有
時候看不到爸爸，他們一定會偷哭。
偷哭就是犯規、就是失敗。
他們偷哭，妳就要逗他們笑，不然遊戲輸了以後，他們一定會哭得
更厲害了。好不好，寶貝？
我們是同一國的，來比賽看妳厲害，還是爸爸？
準備好了嗎，比賽就要開始了！
********************************************************************************

十年後女兒的回信：

最愛的爸爸：

爸爸，我找到你了！
爸爸你知道嗎？
這些年，我很厲害唷，媽咪說我做得比爸爸你還要好呢！
爺爺、奶奶和媽咪犯規時，我都很努力的逗他們笑。
而且爺爺奶奶需要幫助時，我都有乖乖聽你的話。
爸爸……我是不是贏了？
不要擔心，我很勇敢。
因為我知道爸爸永遠都在我身邊看著我，
陪我哭、陪我笑、看我鬧彆扭。
你真的好厲害，你的魔法讓我變的很堅強，讓我變的更茁壯。
我很幸福，因為有爺爺、奶奶、你和媽媽陪著我！
我不孤單，爸爸也不會孤單，因為有我陪著你。
所以爸爸，你不用替我操心，我已經是個十四歲的大姊姊了，
我已經懂事了。
爸爸你可以變作星星，在天上安心的看著我。
爸爸，我畫了幅畫，是我們全家唷！
你想我們的時候，就看著這幅畫，
你想我的時候，我就變魔法，讓你在我們的夢裡來遊玩。
爸爸，我真的好愛你。
可惜比賽結束了…。
爸爸，我贏了……我是不是可以哭了…？
後記：
非常喜歡這篇文章，雖然每次看完都會忍不住掉下眼淚，我還是喜
歡被感動後流淚的滋味。
讓我們更真誠的相待吧！因為人生難得、因緣難遇！
讓我們更真誠的對待妻子或丈夫，因為百年後就不能攜手散步了。
讓我們更珍惜兒女的成長，因為百年後要擁抱他們就不可得了。
讓我們在每一個相會、每一個因緣裡，都能全心的付出與融入，都
能無私的感謝和奉獻。
讓每一刻相待都是最真誠的相待，因為，因為，百年後，這些都不
可得了。
「珍惜今天 ~ 因為它是明天的美好回憶！」
