Once upon a time，a poor family had only one small roll of expensive gold wrapping（包裝）paper．The father had no money to buy any more．On Christmas Eve his 5-yeatold daughter decorated（裝飾）a shoe box with all the gold paper and put it under the Christmas tree．The father was quite unhappy about it．

The next morning the little girl，filled with excitement，brought the gift box to her father and said．“This is for you，Daddy!”

As he opened the box，the father found it was empty．At once he shouted at her．“Don’t you know，young lady，when you give someone a present，there should be something inside the package!”

The little girl almost cried out．She looked up at him and said，“Daddy，it's not empty．I blew kisses into it until it was all full．”

The father was moved．He fell on his knees and put his arms around his pretty little girl．He asked her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger．

Before long an accident took the lire of the child．The father kept that little golden box by his bed for the following years of his life．Whenever he was faced with difficult problems，he would open the box，take out an imaginary（想象的）kiss and remember the love of his beautiful child who had put it there．

In a very real sense，each of us，as a human being，has been given an invisible（隱形的）gold box filled with true love and kisses from our children，parents and friends．There is no more valuable thing than this．
