The Story Behind “The Pursuit of Happyness”
Parents care about their children a lot. They do a lot for them. Do kids know their parents’ hard work?
Now, I’d like to tell you about the movie, The Pursuit of Happyness. In the beginning, Chris Gardner is
a salesman. He buys a machine, a bone-density scanner, with his entire life savings. However, he doesn’t sell
it well, so he runs out of money. He loses his apartment, and his wife leaves him. He becomes a single father
with a young boy, Christopher. They have no place to live. They can only live on the street, in the bathroom
of a train station or a shelter. Life is very difficult for them, but Christopher still believes in his dad. He keeps
saying, “You are a good papa,” and “I trust you.” to Gardner.
Because of the kid’s encouragement, Gardner works hard during his internship as a stockbroker.
Finally, he wins the job and becomes rich. Like most parents, Gardner never gives up because of his son’s
trust and love.
Do you ever think about your parents’ working situation? If not, you should. Do something for your
parents and show them your appreciation.

The Sachet
One day, a boy had three coins in his hand. The boy’s mother asked him to buy some cloth at the
market, so she could make new clothes for him.
On the way, the boy met an old lady, and he asked her, “Why are you sitting by the road?”
The old lady said, “I want to go home, but I tripped over a stone in the road. I hurt my foot, and I can’t
walk any more. With some money, I can take a carriage home.”
Later, the boy took out a coin from his pocket and told her, “Take this coin and get a carriage home!”
The old lady said, “Don’t you need it?”
“It’s okay. I still have tow coins!”
To thank the boy for his help, the old lady gave him a beautiful red ribbon.
After saying goodbye to the old lady, the boy encountered a girl. She was selling spices. The girl said,
“Come and buy spices! I’m out here all day trying to sell these spices, but I didn’t sell even one packet.
Would you buy one?” The boy took out a coin and gave it to the girl. The girl thanked his help. Then, the boy
went on with the spices.
Finally, the boy arrived at the market, but he had only one coin, so the boy just bought a handkerchief.
When he returned home, the boy told his mother the story. His mother was proud of him because he had a
kind and helpful heart. She put the spices into the handkerchief, tied it up with the ribbon, made a sachet and
gave it to her son. It smelled so good.
