A couple of months ago, my daughter Amy lost her trombone（长号） when she got out with her father. We were very sad and angry. We felt angry for the person who took it. We learned that telling friends about our sad things makes us feel better and less worried.
We received sweet messages from friends showing their care for us. Amy received the sweetest letter reminding us that although things in life can be lost and make us upset, we can still find kindness around us.
And then, another student at a different school heard about the situation and decided to give his trombone to my daughter. It turned out that it is the same kind as the lost one. We met this young man who only asked one thing：Amy should never stop learning and making music.
We were so thankful and happy. Amy had her first concert a couple of weeks ago. One thing about kindness is that to the receiver of kindness it might not feel necessary, but to the giver who wants to change things for the better it becomes really necessary.
We are really thankful for everyone's kindness. And we are thankful the trombone got lost in the first place. It taught us so much about other people's healing（治愈） power, even people we have never met before.
