Chapter 43 The Most Beautiful Name
[China] Zhang Lijun

At that moment, we mobilized the best feelings in our lives and silently recited the extraordinary name Qin Momo in our hearts over and over again, forgetting about a kind of nourishment that is more selfless than nectar, and being moved by a kind of food that is greater than milk. feeding...

In a composition class, I asked the students to write an oral composition on the topic of "The Story of the Name".As a result, a girl who was the most awkward to express took the crown of "the most beautiful name".

Unfortunately, I encountered a major earthquake.The mother who accompanied the bed was killed by a collapsed floor.My two aunts and I were buried under the rubble.At first, I kept crying and crying for my mother, but soon I couldn't cry anymore-I'm thirsty!The two aunts took turns holding me.

Heart mark notes
After reading this article, I believe that everyone will feel lucky for that girl named Qin Momo, because she received the most selfless and touching love in the world at a time of crisis!

Living in society, everyone may encounter difficulties and dangers, but a smile, a warm word, a pair of hands stretched out to you... just a little love may give you the courage to face suffering , it may save you from danger.A poet said it well: "Love is a universe larger than the sky and the ocean, and in that unique vault, there are billions of stars of love shining brightly."
