     A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said, "I am a

blind, please help". There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took a few coins

from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some

words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the news words.

     Soon the hat began to fill up. More and more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon

the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and

asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?" The man said, "I

only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way." The man's words was, "Today is a

beautiful day and I cannot see it." Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same

thing?

     Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by

putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of

the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.
