Chapter 320: , The Two Women I Admire (II)
______Walking with Love Part Fifty-Six
Let a child living in darkness see Brightness, and that person themselves is Brightness; let a person who has lost hope in life and existence see hope, and that person is the messenger of hope.
People are called human because they have love in their hearts. Love connects people together, forming a whole; in short, it is called human society. A person without love cannot yet be considered a person.
Because love is the essence and instinct of humans.
Bringing Brightness and love, Shaliwen Miss came to the side of the child who longed to see Brightness, hear sounds, and speak words.
"aTeR" — water.
What does "water" look like? How can one say the word "water"?
This is the most common, simplest word. However, the blind, deaf, and mute little Helen Keller could not see this thing that is inseparable from life at every moment.
"If she can't see it, let her feel it!"
One day, when Shaliwen Miss took little Helen to the edge of the well, she let one of little Helen's hands go into the well water, letting the cool and gentle water flow gently over her hand. Then Shaliwen Miss lightly wrote the small "aTeR" (water) character on little Helen's other hand.
Ah, clever little Helen, suddenly realized—this cool and gentle thing is actually called the "aTeR" (water)!
It was "water" that awakened little Helen's soul. No, it should be said that Shaliwen Miss's love, Big Love, love from the heart, awakened little Helen's soul! And let her feel the world's Brightness, the hope of the future, the joy of being alive, and the freedom of life.
The difference between this person and other animals lies here——this person is forever filled with hope and aspiration for the future! This Brightness and aspiration continually motivate people to strive, to struggle, to fight, to pursue, to achieve, and to realize!
But other animals do not have this feeling.
The reason I want to live is because I have seen the Brightness of the future, I have seen the hope of the future. I am not living just to live. I am living in the Brightness of the future, living in the hope of the future, living in humanity's Big Love! It is others' love that lets me live; therefore, I live, and I must also give my love to others.
In the passing of time, I wait for others' love; in the passing of time, I ought to give my love to others more. Everyone loves me, and I love everyone.
Lord, I beg you——
"Grant me that love as cool and pure as your Rain's threads, which blesses the dry earth, moistens fresh flowers and green leaves, and makes the earth forever full of vitality and beauty…………………
"Grant me that love that can seep deep into the soul! Let fresh flowers stay fresh, stay beautiful; and let them nourish fresh flowers to bear beautiful fruit…………………………
