A story just caught my eye at Good News Network , in the Inspired! column.的故事只是在引起我的眼睛好新闻网 ,在灵感!栏。 A Portuguese man made a will, aged 29.葡萄牙男子作出了将, 29岁。 Seems like the sort of sensible grown-up thing one should do at that age.好像那种明智长大的一个应该做的事情在这个年龄。 He had no family, but his sense of duty wasn’t about to be dampened so easily; he picked out 70 names at random from the phone book.他没有家庭,但他的责任感是不会那么容易受到打击,他挑选了70名随机从电话簿。
Luis Carlos de Noronha Cabral da Camara still had nobody to carry on his name when he died (although such a name deserves to be carried, and very carefully so).路易斯卡洛斯日诺罗尼亚卡布拉尔大卡马拉仍没有人来进行他的名字时,他死(尽管这种名称值得进行,并非常认真地做) 。 His estate—2 houses, a car, and few thousand in cash—thus went to complete strangers at around £6000 apiece.其遗产- 2的房屋,汽车和几千元现金,因此,到完全陌生左右六千英镑分。
This reminded me of a site to which a friend recently drew my attention, called Random Acts of Kindness .这使我想起一个网站,其中一个朋友最近提请我注意,所谓的随机善行 。 I particularly like their quotes section , where I found these two.我特别喜欢他们的报价部分 ,在这里,我发现这两个。 I think as a pair they are particularly warming, as they display commonality between religions:我认为,作为一个对他们特别变暖,因为它们显示宗教之间的共同点:
“Help your brother’s boat across, and your own will reach the shore.” “帮助你的兄弟的船通过,并且将达到自己的彼岸。 ”
—Hindu Proverb印度教谚语
and…和...
“If you light a lamp for somebody, it will also brighten your path.” “如果你点灯的人,也将照亮你的道路。 ”
—Buddhist saying佛教说
