The
night
before
Christmas,
a
man
was
mad
at
his
5-year-old
daughter
for
using
up
all
of
the
family’s
expensive
gold
wrapping
(
包装
)
paper.
The
family
was
not
rich,
and
he
became
very
angry when the child tried to wrap a box to put under the Christmas tree.
However, the next morning the little girl, who was filled with excitement, brought the gift box
to her f
ather’s bedroom and said to him
,
“This is for
you, Daddy! Merry Christmas and I love
you!”

The
father
was
upset
by
what
he
did. But
when
he
opened
the
box,
he
found
it
empty
and
became angry again. “Don’t you know, young lady,” he said. “Anytime you want to give someone
a present, it is necessary to put something inside the box!”

The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said,
“Daddy, it’s not empty. Last
night I blew kisses into it until it was all full.”

The father fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl. He begged her to forgive
(
原谅
) him for his anger.
After that, the father kept the little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever
he
was
discouraged
or
faced
difficult
problems,
he
would
open
the
box,
take
out
a
kiss,
and
remember the love of his beautiful child who had put it there.
