I have forgotten the name of the old lady to whom I delivered newspapers,but I can't forget
the lessons he taught me in forgiveness.
On a winter afternoon,a friend and I were throwing stones onto the roof of the old lady's house.I
found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out.The stone was too smooth.however.so it
slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window of
the house.
At the sound of broken glass,we knew we were in trouble.We turned and ran away quickly.I
was too scared about getting caught that first night to be concerned about the old lady with the
broken window in winter.However,a few days later,when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered,
I started to feel guilty for her misfortune.
She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper,but I was no longer able to
act comfortably in her presence.I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money,
and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I thought would cover the cost of her window
I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and
hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it I waited until dark and put the
letter that I didn't sign in her letterbox.
The next day,I delioered the newspaper to her as usual.She gave me a warm smile and I grinned
to return the warm smile that I was receiving from her.When I was about to leave,she gave me
a bag of cookies she had made herself to thank me for the newspaper.I was surprised to receive it,
showing my gratitude at a loss.On arriving home,I couldn't wait to open the bag and enjoy the
delicious cookies happily,feeling as though I were floating in an ocean of joy
After several cookies,Ifelt an emoelope and pulled it out of the bag.When I opened the envelope.I
was stunned.Inside were the seven dollars and a short note that said."You are an honest child.I'm
proud of you."It wasn't until then that I realized that the old lady had already known the truth.She
had been waiting for my reaction.So moved was I that I couldn't contain myself,with tears
welling in my eyes.From that day on,I told myself I was bound to be an honest and responsible
person.
