One day Frank was walking with his mother when they came to a pretty garden. Frank looked in, and saw that it had clean gravel（碎石）walks and beautiful flowers.

He called to his mother and said, “Mum, come and look at this pretty garden. I wish I might open the gate, and walk in.”

The gardener（园丁）heard what Frank said, and kindly invited him and his mother to come into the garden.

Frank’s mother thanked the man. Then she said to her son, “Frank, if I take you to walk in this garden, you must take care not to meddle(乱动)with anything in it.”

Frank walked along the tidy gravel walks, and looked at everything, but touched nothing that he saw.

He did not step on any of the borders（草坪边的狭长花坛）, and was careful that his clothes should not brush the tops of the flowers so that he might not break them.

The gardener was much pleased（满意的）with Frank, because he was so careful to behave well. He showed him the seeds, and told him the name of many of the flowers and plants.

While Frank was admiring the beauty of a flower, a little boy came to the gate, and finding it locked. He shook it hard, but it would not open. Then he said, “Let me in. Let me in. Will you not let me in this garden?"

“No,” said the gardener, “1 will not let you in, Tom. When I let you in yesterday, you meddled with my flowers, and pulled some of my fruit. I do not choose to let a boy into my garden who meddles with the plants.”

Tom looked ashamed, and when he found that the gardener would not let him in, he went slowly away.

Frank saw and felt how much happier a boy may be by not meddling with what does not belong to him.

He and his mother then continued their walk in the garden, and enjoyed the day very much. Before they left, the gardener gave each of them some pretty flowers.

   Michaela Clovis is a neighbor of mine. Last year, one of her classmates made fun of her hair. “She said it doesn’t look right and doesn’t match my skin,” said Michaela. Michaela is Irish, German, Native American, and African American. She has pale skin and reddish yellow hair, but she is not white.
   Soon, a few classmates joined the teasing (嘲笑). Michaela said she felt"small and alone." But she stopped the teasing without getting angry. Here's how she did it.
   First, Michaela talked to her parents. Her mother, Donna, told Michaela's teacher and also suggested that Michaela not face the teasing alone. Next, Donna told Michaela about the different people in her family, and their love for each other. She taught her that people of all races are beautiful.
   "Everyone's skin or hair color is beautiful and you have to believe that for yourself. You have to learn to be confident and comfortable in your own skin and hair. Forget what your classmates say, as it's just a period most kids go through picking on others because they are 'different!' Just don't let it get to you and you'll be okay! Be proud of who you are and love yourself for being a kind and generous (宽宏大量的) human being," Michaela' s mother said.
