One day, in a place with many people, a young man wearing expensive clothes said politely, "Please look at me. I have the most beautiful heart in the world."
Many people looked at him and were surprised to see his beautiful heart in a perfect shape. It looked quite amazing. Most people praised him.
However, there came an old man and he said, "No, my son, I have got the most beautiful heart in the world!" The old man showed his heart to him which had scars(伤痕) all over.
The young man started laughing, and said, "My dear old man, are you crazy? See, my heart! How beautiful it is! You cannot find a bit of imperfection(不完美) in my heart. See, yours? It is full of scars. How can you say your heart is beautiful?"
"Dear boy, did you see the scars? I share a piece of my heart with others when I share love, and in return I get a piece of heart, which I fix at the place from where I have torn(撕) a piece!" said the old man.
The young man was surprised. The old man continued, "since the pieces of heart I shared were not the same shape or size, my heart is full of scars. Your heart that looks fresh with no scars shows that you never shared love with anybody. Isn't that true?"
The young man stood still and didn't say a word. Tears rolled down his cheeks.
