full moon 林清玄 409Words 2018-03-18
In the market, I often see a beggar sitting in a wheelchair, covered with a dirty towel from the waist down, with his upper body crooked, slumped softly on the chair, with a sad and dazed expression. His sad and dazed expression is the most painful, so many people give him alms. At noon today, I walked through the market and saw a familiar man standing by the watermelon stall eating bento, talking and laughing with the watermelon seller.I was startled: why does this person look so familiar, could he be my friend? Not sure, I walked back, stood under the eaves to watch him, and searched for memories.

ah!It turned out to be the beggar in the wheelchair! So he could stand and walk, he could eat bento, he could talk and laugh loudly, he was fake!Then I saw his old wheelchair and towels abandoned by the watermelon stand, which proved what I saw.This surprise was no small matter, and it made me restless all afternoon, as if I had been cheated by a good friend. It wasn't until night that my heart calmed down, because I thought of how hard it is for a good young man to be crooked all day long, pretending to be paralyzed, and how vivid his sad and dazed expression is, better than ordinary actors.

He is not a beggar, he is a street performer, he performed paralyzed, sad and bewildered, I was moved after seeing it, and naturally I rewarded him with money, there is nothing to be upset about!
