A Simple Hello

简单的一句问候

I have always felt sympathy and compassion for the kids I see at school walking all alone, for the ones that sit in the back of the room while everyone snickers and makes fun of them.

我一直对我看见的那些孩子保持同情和怜悯，在学校一个人孤零零走在路上的孩子，那些坐在教室最后面且被别人嘲笑和捉弄的孩子。

But I never did anything about it. I guess I figured that someone else would.

但我从来没有坐过类似的事。但我想肯定有人做过这样的事。

I did not take the time to really think about the depth of their pain.

我其实没有花时间去认真思考他们的痛苦。

Then one day I thought, what if I did take a moment out of my busy schedule to simply say hello to someone without a friend or stop and chat with someone eating by herself?

然后有一天，我想，如果我从我很忙的日程表里找出一点时间，仅仅对没有朋友的人简单地说声“你好”，或者停下来对自己独自吃饭的人聊会天会怎么样呢？

And I did. It felt good to brighten up someone else's life.

于是我真得这样做了。给别人的生活带去一点光亮让我感觉很好。

How did I know I did?

我怎么知道我做到了呢？

Because I remembered the day a simple kind hello changed my life forever.

因为我记得有一天一个简单的问候永远地改变了我的生活。
