A plane

A plane

　One day, there was an old man, a young lady, and a boy sitting in the same line in a plane. It was a very sunny day when the plane took off. When the plane was at the middle of its travel, thunders and lightings¹ appeared. And then many passengers got afraid to become a mess. The old man quickly took out his book and said his prayer. The young lady was almost got faint². However, the boy was just calm, still playing with his PSP with an earphone on his ears. After finishing his prayer, the old man asked the boy, “Hey! Aren’t you afraid what will happen next?”

　The boy just answered, “No, I am not.”

　The lady was surprised. Then the old man asked him, “We are in the middle of a mess and there are thunders and lightings, why don’t you get afraid?” The boy then answered with a smile on his face, “I should not be afraid and will not be afraid for this trip, because I believe everything’s gonna be all right in the end.”

　Finally, the plane got through the dilemma³.

　Sometimes in life we are afraid of what will happen to us. We are very afraid something goes bad. In fact, we should not lose our faith that everything will be all right. We believe that and at the same time we try our best.
