Mistakes

 

 

It got colder, and the frost covered the windows with fine lace patterns. Grandmother and granddaughter examined and slowly, almost fabulously, came up with what could be on the window. Frost, as a storyteller, wrote them his winter tales. And then the girl, turning to her grandmother and pointing to the pattern, said:

Look, the angel is laughing?

“Yes, indeed,” Grandma replied.

– Is very similar.

– What do you think, grandmother, what made him so happy?

Probably people. After all, Angels are pleased and upset by the actions of people.

“Here, look: a limping man with a cane is walking along the street, and relying on the cane gives him the opportunity to move. But – the boy accidentally knocked out the stick, and the man stopped, was confused and could not go further. It’s good that the boy immediately raised his wand, – said the granddaughter, – otherwise the person would have to stand in the cold and wait for help.

– In such situations, perhaps, the Angel rejoices. When people realize that they accidentally or unknowingly acted badly, and immediately do well, they correct mistakes.

“It’s nice to be able to fix them,” the girl said.

– I’ll go and draw a smiling Angel – such as on our frosty window.
