When the door finally opened, I felt a compassionate pat on my back, and turned to see an elderly nun smiling at me. "You'll get that degree, dear," she whispered. "Perseverance is a virtue."

第1个故事 小孩的心
有一位单身女子刚搬了家，她发现隔壁住了一户穷人家， 一个寡妇与两个小孩子。有天晚上，那一带忽然停了电，那位女子只好自己点起了蜡烛。没一会儿，忽然听到有人敲门。
原来是隔壁邻居的小孩子，只见他紧张地问：「阿姨，请问你家有蜡烛吗？」女子心想：「他们家竟穷到连蜡烛都没有吗？千万别借他们，免得被他们依赖了！ 」
於是，对孩子吼了一声说：「没有！」正当她准备关上门时，那穷小孩展开关爱的笑容说：「我就知道你家一定没有！」 说完，竟从怀里拿出两根蜡烛，说：「妈妈和我怕你一个人住又没有蜡烛，所以我带两根来送你。」
此刻女子自责、感动得热泪盈眶，将那小孩子紧紧地拥在怀里
