Don’t Disrespect Others

More than 70 years ago, a young man traveled far away to take an entrance exam for a famous music school. During the exam, he tried his best, but the examiner didn’t enroll (录取) him.

The young man had no money, so he could only make a living by playing the violin on the street. He played so well that a lot of people stopped to listen and put money into his violin case.

A hoodlum (流氓) dropped some money at the young man’s feet. The young man bent down to pick up the money, then handed it to the hoodlum and said, “Sir, your money dropped on the ground.”

The hoodlum took the money, threw it at the young man’s feet again and said, “This money has been yours, so you must take it!”

The young man deeply bowed to him and said, “Sir, thank you for your support! When you dropped your money, I picked it up for you. Now my money is on the ground, may I trouble you to pick it up for me?”

The hoodlum was surprised. Finally, he picked up the money, put it into the young man’s violin case and left in shame.

The examiner who had been quietly watching the young man among other onlookers decided to give him a second chance. He brought the young man back to the school and enrolled him in the end.

The young man became a famous musician later.
