It was early in the spring about 15 years ago a day of pale sunlight and trees just began to turn green. I was a young police reporter, driving to a scene I didn't want to see. A man had accidentally backed his pickup truck over his baby granddaughter in the driveway of their home. It was a fatality.
As I parked among police cars and TV news cruisers, I saw a white haired man standing near a pickup. Cameras were trained on him, and reporters were sticking microphones in his face. Looking totally bewildered(困惑的) , he was trying to answer their questions. Mostly he wag only moving his lips, blinking and choking up.
After a white the reporters gave up on him and followed the. police into a small white house. I could still see that old man looking down at the place in the driveway where the child had been.
“I was just backing up there to spread that good dirt. ”he said to me, though I had not asked him anything. “I didn't even know she was outdoors. ”He stretched his hand toward the flower bed, then let it flop to his side.
Entering the kitchen, I came upon the scene. On a table, backlight by a curtained window, lay the tiny body. wrapped in a clear white sheet. Somehow the grandfather had managed to stay away from the crowd. He was sitting on a chair beside the table, in profile (側(cè)面) to me and unaware of my presence, looking at the small body.
In that quiet moment I recognized the making of a prize winning news photograph. I raised the camera.
I don't know how many seconds I stood there, unable to snap that shutter. I was keenly aware of the powerful story telling value that photo would have, and my professional conscience(意識(shí)) told me to take it. Yet I couldn't make my hand fire that flashbulb and intrude on the poor man's island of sadness.
At length I lowered the camera and walked away shaken with doubt about my suitability for the journalistic profession. Of course I never told the city editor or any fellow reporters about that missed opportunity for a perfect news picture. But I still feel right about what I did.

What Is a Boy?
Between the innocence of babyhood and the seriousness of manhood we find a delightful creature called a “boy”. Boys come in different sizes, weights, and colors, but all boys have the same belief: to enjoy every second of every minute of every hour of every day and to fill the air with noise until the adult males pack them off to bed at night.
Boys are found everywhere – on top of, under, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to this and that! Mothers spoil them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers love them, and God protects them. A boy is TRUTH with dirt on its face,BEAUTY with a cut on its finger, WISDOM with chocolate in its hair, and the HOPE of the future with a snake in its pocket.
When you are busy, a boy is a trouble – maker and a noise. When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly or else he becomes a wild creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it.
A boy is a mixture – he has the stomach of a horse, the digestion of stones and sand, the energy of an atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the imagination of a superman, the shyness of a sweet girl, the brave nature of a bull, the violence of a firecracker, but when you ask him to make something, he has five thumbs on each hand.
He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, woods, water (in its natural habitat), large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday mornings, and fire engines. He is not much for Sunday schools, company, schools, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime.
Nobody else is so early to rise, or so late to supper. Nobody else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes. Nobody else can put into one pocket a rusty knife, a half eaten apple, a three-foot rope, six cents and some unknown things.
A boy is a magical creature – he is your headache but when you come home at night with only shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words, “Hi, Dad!”
