It was one busymorning in those rush hours 那是一个忙碌的早晨,正是早高峰时段 when I hopped intothe bus heading town to run some errands, 我刚跳上公交车的门槛,准备进城去办事 I sat next to someguy his name was Musa. 一个男子坐在我的旁边,他的名字叫Musa He said hi and Ireplied with a smile 他对我打招呼,我回之以微笑 and our conversation began from there. 我们的交谈从从这里开始了 We talked about alot of things 我们谈到很多东西 particularly aboutlife and work 特别是关于生活和工作 and he just begancomplementing my natural look. 接着他就开始赞美我质朴的打扮 He said he was impressedwith how natural I was, 他说,我天生丽质的容貌让他眼前一亮 am a kind of girlwho keeps it all natural, 我是那种不饰铅华的女孩 no make up and Ialways keep my African natural hair as it is. 我从不化妆,头发也总是它最自然的样子 So Musa said thosewords genuinely Musa的赞美十分真诚 and like any girlwould, I felt good and appreciated 我十分开心,我想所有的女孩都会这样 even though it wasfrom a stranger. 即使那些赞美出自一个陌生人之口 In the back of mymind I knew he would then ask for my number as most guys do 我心中暗暗想到,他一定会探问我的电话号码,就像大多数男孩会做的那样 but wereached the end 可是我们的邂逅很快告一段落 and said goodbyeto each other just like that 我们只是对对方说了再见 and I have neverseen him since then. 从那之后我再也没有见过他 So what am tryingto say here is that 此刻我想要说的是 sometimes peoplearen't always as thought of by the society, 有时人们并不像社会舆论惯常以为的那样恶劣 so keep seeing thebest in people instead of assuming worst things about them. 与其假设他们是无恶不作的坏蛋,不如试着看到他们身上最好的品质吧!
