快乐

快乐在我们的生活中无处不在，快乐是劳动，是创造，是奉献……

世界著名作家高尔基说，“给”永远比“拿”愉快。班主任程老师也告诉我们，快乐在于奉献，而不在于索取。前不久发生的一件事，让我真正地体会到了“快乐”的意义。

那天，天很冷，傍晚时分，我去离家很近的永辉超市买文具盒。一路上我哈着白气小跑着，因为只要进了开空调的`超市就不冷了!在超市的入口处，我看见一位老伯伯正在卖力地吆喝着:“卖国旗了!”我走近一看，那位伯伯的头发被风吹得乱蓬蓬的，衣着寒酸，脸上有着一道道深深的皱纹，好像每一道皱纹里都清清楚楚地记载着岁月中的坎坷。风是那么大，他的衣服却是那么的单薄。我心里一酸，泪涌了出来。

我想去帮帮他，便走上前去和他交谈了起来。老伯伯告诉我他的儿子患了白血病，家里经济条件很不好，他年纪大了，也干不了重活，所以只好顶着寒风出来卖几面国旗挣点钱。我问道:“老伯伯，这一面旗卖多少钱啊?”他说:“五毛。”我说:“伯伯，您都给我吧，我全要了!”

我一共付了40元，原本是只要10元的，可我看着老伯伯那么无助，心里很不是滋味，就多付了30元钱。但老伯伯很快就发现了，硬要我把这多付的30元带回家。我拗不过他，接过了钱。但在离开时，我又悄悄地将那30元塞进了他的外衣口袋里。

那天，我没有买到心仪已久的文具盒，可我一点也没觉得委屈。回家的路上，风刮得更猛了，我手中的小国旗迎着风不停地舞动，刷刷作响。我回头望了望老伯伯渐渐远去的背影，感觉身上暖暖的，心里有着说不出的快乐!

英语翻译：

Happiness is everywhere in our lives. Happiness is labor, creation, and dedication...

The world-famous writer Gorky said, "Give" is always happier than "take". Teacher Cheng, the head teacher, also told us that happiness lies in dedication, not in demand. An incident that happened not long ago made me truly appreciate the meaning of "happiness".

That day, it was very cold. In the evening, I went to the Yonghui Supermarket, which is close to home, to buy a stationery box. Along the way, I was jogging in vain, because as long as I enter the air-conditioned supermarket, it won’t be cold! At the entrance of the supermarket, I saw an old man yelling vigorously: "The national flag is sold!" Upon closer inspection, the uncle's hair was messed up by the wind, his clothes were shabby, and his face had deep wrinkles, as if every wrinkle clearly recorded the roughness of the years. The wind is so strong, but his clothes are so thin. I felt sore, tears welled up.

I wanted to help him, so I stepped forward and talked with him. The old man told me that his son was suffering from leukemia and his family's financial situation was very bad. He was too old to do heavy work, so he had to sell a few national flags to earn some money under the cold wind. I asked, "Old man, how much does this flag cost?" He said, "Five cents." I said, "Uncle, give it to me, I want it all!"

I paid a total of 40 yuan. Originally it was only 10 yuan, but when I saw the old man so helpless, I felt very uncomfortable, so I paid 30 yuan more. But the old man quickly found out and insisted that I take the extra 30 yuan home. I couldn't help him, and took the money. But when I left, I quietly stuffed the 30 yuan into his coat pocket.

That day, I didn't buy the stationery box I wanted for a long time, but I didn't feel wronged at all. On the way home, the wind blew harder, and the small national flag in my hand was waving and rustling in the wind. I looked back at the old man’s back, feeling warm, and there was indescribable happiness in my heart!
