"Giving a whole hear yet taking nothing in return，not even a leaf of grass."26.

The boy looked at me questioningly，but he picked up the violin.Going out to the living room，he suddenly saw on the wall my huge color photo I performed in the Sydney Opera House.He trembled for a moment and ran out without looking back.I was sure that the boy had understood what happened because no one would decorate the living room with the housekeeper's photo.A few years later，at a music competition of senior high school students in Melbourne，I was invited to judge the final.Finally，a violin player called Merritt won the first prize with his strength!After the award，Merritt ran to me holding a violin box，excited，asked，"Mr.Brian，do you still know me？You have given me a violin which I have been treasuring until today!Today，I can give back this violin to you without regret..."
