A successful businessman named John told the experience of his childhood.
When he was 12 ,he lost both of his parents. He was alone and didn't get on well with others. People always laughed at him and no one showed kindness to him.

"Um!Even a dog likes it!" he said, "Well,Jack,I won't say unkind words to you any more."Jack waved its tail happily.
The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on,he had a new life.
