Galaxy saw a man and a woman who communicated with the sign language at the train station when she was on the way home one evening. She noticed that the woman asked the mon for the direction. He told her that he did not know. Galaxy decided to help them. She had learned the sign language when she served as a volunteer in the deaf and mute（聾�。﹕chool. Then she showed the woman the direction and left her email address to them in case they needed her help later.
She received an email from that man the next day. Kazrim was his name. Galaxy replied his mail sincerely. They both started chatting online soon after and began seeing each other. Although they only communicated with the sign language, it never bothered her.
Galaxy was fond of him gradually. Obviously, Kazrim was the same too. He presented Galaxy with a bunch of sunflowers and asked her sincerely, “Are you willing to be my girlfriend?” Galaxy was pleasantly surprised. She requested him to give her some time to persuade her parents.
As she had expected, her parents were very angry after they had learned of their love story. Galaxy explained, “Kazrim is an excellent and a very optimistic person. He has a very positive attitude towards life and work. He cares for others always. He is 100％ better than the normal. Moreover, the mute is still a human. He should possess a perfect and wonderful love. ”
Her parents asked to see him, then. The very worried Galaxy took Kazrim home a few days later. When they were on the train, Kazrim told her, ‘‘I’m going to tell your parents I’ll be looking after you well with all my life!” Galaxy was deeply moved.
As soon as they had entered the house, Galaxy introduced him to her parents. She said, ‘‘This is Kazrim.” Just right after her speech, an unbelievable thing happened. Kazrim threw the gift away and held her in his arms tightly.
He said, “YOU CAN TALK?” It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask, too.
The four people were shocked all of a sudden. As a matter of fact, Kazrim always believed that Galaxy was a mute and he still fell in love with her deeply.

I go to interview a great man. "What surprises you most in your life?" I ask. The great man answers, "People don't like to be children; when they grow up, they wish to be children again. They lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health. They think anxiously about the future, but they forget the present, so they live neither for the present nor the future. "

I have never heard of these words. I am silent for a while, write these words down, and then I ask the second question prepared ahead of time, "As a parent, what lessons do you want your children to learn from life?"

The great man answers with a smile, "I want them to learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved. I want them to learn that the most valuable thing is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives. I want them to learn that it is not good to compare themselves with others. I want them to learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is the one who needs the least. I want them to learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. I want them to learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but do not know how to express their feelings. I want them to learn that money can buy everything but happiness. I want them to learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently. I want them to learn that a true friend is someone who likes them anyway. I want them to learn that it is not always enough that they are forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves. "
