The Power of Your Actions
( to continue)
Graduation day arrived — I saw Kyle and he lookedgreat. He was one of those guys that really foundhimself during high school. He filled out and actuallylooked good in glasses. He had more dates than meand all the girls loved him!
Boy, sometimes I was jealous. Today was one ofthose days. I could see that he was nervous abouthis speech. So, I smacked him on the back and said, "Hey, big guy, you'll be great!"
He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled. "Thanks," he said.As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. "Graduation is a time to thankthose who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, yoursiblings, maybe a coach... but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being afriend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story."
I stared at my friend in disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned tokill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Momwouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave mea little smile. "Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable."
I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about hisweakest moment. I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile.Not until that moment did I realize its depth.
Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture you can change aperson's life. For better or for worse. God puts us all in each other's lives to impact oneanother in some way. Look for God in others.
"Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how tofly."
There is no beginning or end ... Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift. (finished)

(續(xù))畢業(yè)日來臨了——我看到了凱爾，他看起來帥極了。他是那些在高中真正把握住自己的人之一。他長大了，實際上帶著眼鏡更好看。他的約會比我還要多，幾乎所有的女孩都喜歡他。
天哪，有時候我都有些嫉妒。今天就是這樣。我能看出他對于演講有些緊張。因此，我拍了拍他的后背，說：“嗨，大小伙子，你會很出色的!”
他看了看我，帶著那樣的表情(真正出于感激的那種)，笑了。“謝謝，”他說。開始演講時，他清了清喉嚨，開始說：“畢業(yè)的時候，你應(yīng)該感謝那些幫助你度過最困難時期的人。你的父母、老師、兄弟姐妹、也許還有教練……但主要是你的朋友。我在這兒要告訴你們，做別人的朋友是你能給予他們的最好禮物。我要給你們講一個故事。”
我不敢置信地望著我的朋友，他講的就是我們第一天相遇的故事。他本來打算要在那個周末自殺，他談到自己如何把課桌收拾干凈，把他所有的東西都帶回家，這樣就不用媽媽以后再收拾了。他直直地看著我，給了我一個笑容。“謝天謝地，我獲救了。我的朋友阻止了我去做那不堪設(shè)想的事情。”
當(dāng)這位帥氣的、受歡迎的男孩告訴我們有關(guān)他的最脆弱的時刻時，我聽到人群中都深吸了一口氣。我看到他的爸爸媽媽都看著我，帶著同樣感激的微笑。直到那時我才意識到它的深刻。
決不要低估你的行動的力量，一個簡單的舉止也許會改變?nèi)说囊簧瑹o論是好是壞。上帝讓我們走進(jìn)彼此的生命，在一定程度上影響著彼此。我們也要在其他人身上尋找到上帝的影子。
“朋友就是天使，當(dāng)我們的翅膀不知如何飛翔時，他們能夠幫你站立起來。”
根本不存在開始或者結(jié)束……昨天已成為歷史，明天還是個謎，今天才是我們手中的禮物。
