On Monday evening, I received a message online from a student who had got a very mean message in his locker (小柜). He took a picture of it and sent it to me asking for 41 . I suggested that he 42 me at break the following morning.
A few hours later, I 43 on the Internet that he had posted the picture of the mean note and asked if anyone 44 who it was. Obviously, he was trying to give the person who did it a little 45 in coming forward.
The next day when the 46 came, the boy came to me and another 47 was with him. The boy showed me another note he had received. 48 this was a heartfelt 49 . I asked him if he knew who had written it, and the boy who came with him 50 : “It was me. I don’t know 51 I did it, but I know it was wrong and not at all 52 . So I wrote him this note. I also wrote 150 post-its (便利贴) with kind sayings on them and 53 them onto all the lockers. I just wanted to do something to try to 54 for my meanness.”
My heart felt so full of 55 for this boy. I told him how 56 I thought it was of him to come 57 and how amazing it was that he did something kind to try to balance his mistake. I turned to the boy who received both notes and asked him if he also 58 the bravery and could 59 . Without hesitation, he said: “Yes. 60 . Courage is virtue.”
