Several years passed she asked me again. For I had often thought of the correct answer, so this time I told her, “Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it be our eyes”. She looked at me and told me, “You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”

I was when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a between her and me. She saw the puzzlement (疑惑)on my face and told me, “This question is very important. It that you have really lived your life.” I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your ”. I asked, “Is it because it your head?” She replied, “No, it is because a crying friend or loved one can rest his head on it. I only hope that you have enough friends that you will have a shoulder to cry when you need it.” Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish (自私的）one.
