22、Soela Zani is a photographer(摄影师) from Albania. In 1988, a quiet boy lived next door to her. Born with Down’s syndrome(唐氏综合征), the boy never spoke and seldom went outside because his parents felt shame to be seen with him.

“It was sad to see that,” Zani said. “Now, people know differently. Children with Down’s syndrome are lovely. We need to accept them as they are and give them a chance to succeed in life.”

Zani wanted to do something for those lovely children, so she opened an exhibition(展览) last year at Albania’s National Historical Museum. Photos of children with Down’s syndrome were shown in the exhibition. In the photos, the children are copying poses(姿势) from famous paintings.

“When we opened the exhibition, the visitors enjoyed all the pictures. Many even started to cry in front of them. I was very touched,” Zani said, “These children are beautiful. They are pieces of art. This is my message. There is no difference between a child with Down’s syndrome and a child without it. They are the same. This exhibition is a present from me to them.

23、One day it was raining heavily. I was late for a meeting in a nearby city that I knew only by GPS, and my phone died. I couldn’t find out how to get there or how to reach my friends.

I stopped at a McDonald’s in a poor part of a town and walked up to a mother and her daughter. “I’m sorry,” I said. “Do you mind if I make a call with your phone? I need to let my friends know I’m lost.” She handed me her phone and then told me I was lucky to make the last call—— she was about to turn it off because she didn’t have enough money to pay her phone bill (账单).

The young girl and the mother were holding (抱着) each other and talking together as I made the call. I got in touch with (和……取得联系) my friends. They, thankfully, knew where I was and told me how to get to them.

As I was leaving, I reached into my wallet. Luckily, there was $20. I put it into the mother’s hand and then turned to leave quickly. As I walked through the doors, I heard the mother crying. Her daughter called after me and said, “Madam, you have no idea how you just helped us.”

I still think back to that day even now. They had no idea how much they helped me, yet I was the one being thanked. It’s funny how that works.
