A Friend of Liberality
When I was in high school, there was a girl whom I disliked. I don’t know why I dislike her. She had
always been friendly towards me, and had never done anything to cause me to feel the same way I did about
her. I was continually saying unpleasant things to her, making fun of her, snubbing her.
One day as I was going home from school, the girl caught up with me and told me that our teacher
wanted me to come back for a while. I did not believe her and walked on down the street, leaving the girl
standing alone.
The next day when I got to school, our teacher asked me: “Why didn’t you come back to the school as I
asked you to ?” I said: “I didn’t know you wanted me ?”. The teacher sent for the girl and asked her: “ Did
you tell Rose to come back ?” The girl answered, “I’m sorry, but I didn’t tell her. I couldn’t catch up with
her”. I was surprised and suddenly realized how pretty she was. I felt I ought to be ashamed of myself and I
found out all my fault in comparison with her liberality.
