Learning to be Humble: The Story of Helen |
|
|
Helen was a proud girl. She was the only child in her family, and her parents
gave her everything she asked for. In school, she had no friends because her
classmates found her snobbish and arrogant. She didn't care about making
friends, but deep down, she felt lonely and unhappy.
One day, while waiting for her driver after school, a thief snatched her gold
chain. She cried out for help, but nobody came to her aid. Even the school guard
and prefects ignored her because of her arrogant behavior.
Feeling scared and alone, Helen ran to the toilet and cried her heart out. Her
class teacher, Miss Lim, heard her and went to check on her. Helen shared her
feelings with Miss Lim, who gave her some valuable advice. She told Helen to be
nice to her classmates, show them she wanted to be their friend, and not be
arrogant.
Helen listened to Miss Lim and decided to change her behavior. The next day, she
smiled at her classmates, called them by name, and offered to help them with
their work. She shared her food and did homework together with them.
Her classmates noticed the change in her behavior and started including her in
their activities. She was no longer the proud lonely girl but a friendly and
humble one. Helen learned that being kind, humble, and friendly could make her
happy and help her make friends.
In conclusion, Helen's story teaches us that being proud and arrogant doesn't
lead to happiness or make friends. We should learn to be humble, kind, and
friendly to those around us. We all need friends, and being humble and kind is
the best way to make them. |
