We met in night school. After Jennie and I had completed the required courses, we started teaching in the same school. For a time we were just casual friends, but one day, when I was telling Jennie about my problem son, we discovered we were kindred (同类的) spirits. Hes a difficult little character, I explained. Jennie looked thoughtful. Maybe youre only seeing him with your eyes. She was silent for a moment and then added softly, It is only with the heart that one sees rightly. I stared at her. Youre quoting (引用) that! Its from The Little Prince, Saint-Exuperys book for children, one of my favorites. You know it, too? Jennie nodded. I love it. Ive read it so often. Ive practically memorized it.Now, when I think of Jennie, I recall that book because Jennie more than anyone I know possessed the gift of seeing with the heart.From that moment of a treasured book shared, our friendship grew steadily. It wasnt that I didnt have an excellent relationship with my husband and son, but my mother had died shortly after my marriage, and I had neither sisters nor daughters. I realize, now, how I needed someone to share those little, seemingly unimportant things that add so much to life things that must be shared to be fully appreciated.And it was Jennie who helped me with my fourth-grade problem child. One day I was at my wits end. What he needs is a good beating! I exploded.Hes probably had plenty of those, Jennie said. Maybe he just needs sincere praise for anything he does right, and a hug or two each day. I followed this suggestion, and eventually, because of Jennie, I discovered a lovable little boy.Looking back, I have to admit that she taught me so much. The days I spent with her has become one of my happiest memories.31 .
