A little girl was excluded from the choir by her teacher because she was short and thin. Moreover, who told her to always wear a gray, old and ill-fitting dress!
The little girl hid in the park and cried sadly. She thought: Why can't I sing? Do I really sing badly?
Thinking about it, the little girl began to sing in a low voice. She sang one song after another until she was tired of singing.
"Singing so well!" At this time, a voice sounded, "Thank you, little girl, you let me spend a pleasant afternoon."
Little girl Shocked!
The speaker was an old man with white hair. After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked away alone.
When the little girl went back the next day, the old man was still sitting in his original position, looking at her with a kind smile.
The little girl then started singing again, and the old man listened attentively, with an expression of intoxication. Finally, he cheered loudly and said, "Thank you, little girl, you sang so well!" After that, he still left alone.
After many years passed like this, the little girl became a big girl. When she became a big girl, she was beautiful and slim, and she was a famous singer in the small town. But she could not forget the kind old man on the armchair in the park. One winter afternoon, she went to the park to find the old man, but she was disappointed. There was only a small lonely armchair there. Later I found out that the old man had died a long time ago.
“He is deaf and has been deaf for 20 years!” an insider told her.
The girl was shocked.
The old man who listened to a little girl singing and praised her enthusiastically every day was actually deaf
