                  A vale of a value

In modern times people's lives go to their ways. Our parents work hard and earn money, we go to school to discover some new things, our younger sisters and brothers begin to mould their characters. You see, people work all the life and they do it to be happy. But our values are so different and individual. Money and career form fortune for some people friendship and love bring happiness for others. We all move to a vale of a value to find ourselves and be happy...

That story happend in a small town where a rich person lived. His name was Amir. He worked hard and his life was like a big green dollar. Every evening Amir went home, had dinner and thought about his life. To tell the truth, that person was really lonely. His parents died so early. It happened when Amir was 7 years old. It's no wonder the little boy spent his childhood in an orphanage. He knew trouble because the boy stood out in a crowd. He was kind and he tried not to hurt people around. When his coevals shouted at him Amir didn't pay attention and kept silence. He was clever, believed the best and in the miracles, read many books and imagined his future. Finally, Amir was a success. Three big companies and two houses belonged to him. But.. Amir was unhappy. He was no stranger to talk with a friend.

But one day he met a crying man. Amir asked him: "What happened?" The person whispered: Isabella... My sister... She is seriously ill. We need money, much money for her treatment! She doesn't have much time..." Amir was shocked hearing those words. Suddenly, he said:"Me... I want to help you.. I can do it!" He thought that it would be better to support the man than to put aside the chaffy green sheets of paper. The man was impressed:" It is impossible! Thank you! Then I must acquaint you with her!" And they went to an old house where Isabella was staying in bed. She looked so ailing. Amir greeted her. Their eyes met and they saw kindred souls in each other. Amir said: "Everything will be good" and she answered:" I know, because you are with me.. I trust you".

A few days later Isabella recovered. And that day Amir offered her his hand. Isabella said: "Yes!". Her brother became Amir's best friend and he felt happy for the first time in all the life.

Thus the man with a heart of gold reached the big difficult vale of a value and learnt the hard lessons, appreciated for himself what was better and how not to give up. He went through water and fire and he didn't lose hope and gave it to others.

 

That's why Amir became happy.

The end.
