In the long journey of life, we always write our own stories inadvertently. Sometimes, these stories are prosaic, like a trickle; Sometimes, they are magnificent, like the waves of the sea. Today, I want to tell a heartwarming story about planning life, about love, about gratitude and inheritance.
Xiaoya, a woman who once wandered between love and career, twelve years ago, her marriage to Zhao Lei came to an end. Although the two chose their own paths, the former feelings were like a brand, deeply engraved in each other's hearts. After the divorce, Xiaoya, although she is living a prosperous life on the surface, often feels an inexplicable loneliness and emptiness deep in her heart.
Twelve years is enough time for a person to move from youth to maturity, from confusion to firmness. Xiaoya continued to work hard in the workplace and became a senior editor-in-chief of social and emotional magazines. Her words are warm and powerful, and they always touch people's innermost emotions. However, just when she thought her life was on track, an unexpected phone call shattered the peace.
On the other end of the phone, the voice of the ex-mother-in-law was trembling and eager: "Xiaoya, come back quickly, Zhao Lei...... Something happened to him. Hearing the news, Xiaoya's heart sank suddenly. She couldn't believe her ears, how could the man she once loved so much suddenly meet with an accident?
On the way to the hospital in a hurry, Xiaoya's heart was full of complicated emotions. She was worried about Zhao Lei's safety, but also afraid of facing the family she was once familiar with. However, when she saw Zhao Lei lying on the hospital bed, all her worries disappeared. Zhao Lei's injuries were serious and unconscious, but those closed eyes seemed to tell endless sadness and reluctance.
During the days in the hospital, Xiaoya and her ex-mother-in-law took care of Zhao Lei together. They took turns keeping vigil and accompanied him through long nights after night. Although Zhao Lei's condition still shows no signs of improvement, he seems to have more vitality and vitality in the company of them.
However, fate did not favor this already stormy family. Early one morning, Zhao Lei closed his eyes forever. His death plunged Xiaoya and her ex-mother-in-law into deep grief. They can't accept this cruel truth, but the reality is in front of them, and there is no escape.
At Zhao Lei's funeral, Xiaoya saw many familiar faces. Those colleagues and friends who had worked with Zhao Lei came to see him off for the last time. They told their thoughts and reluctance to Zhao Lei at his grave, and tears wet everyone's faces. Xiaoya stood in the crowd, with mixed feelings in her heart. She remembered the bits and pieces with Zhao Lei, and those laughter and tears that had been turned into endless thoughts now.
Just as the funeral was about to end, the ex-mother-in-law suddenly handed Xiaoya an envelope. She told Xiaoya that this was Zhao Lei's last wish before he died. Xiao Ya opened the envelope with apprehension, only to see that there was a note and a document inside. The note read: "Xiaoya, thank you for your companionship and care over the years. I know we've had our unpleasantness, but in my heart, you'll always be the most important person to me. I hope you will accept this legacy and use it to help those in need. And that document is Zhao Lei's will, in which he left all his property to Xiaoya and his ex-mother-in-law.
This unexpected turn of events shocked Xiaoya. She never thought that Zhao Lei would make such a decision. However, in addition to being shocked, she was more moved and grateful. She understands that this is Zhao Lei's love and gratitude to her, and it is also his last care and responsibility for this family.
With the help of Zhao Lei's estate, Xiaoya and her ex-mother-in-law started a charitable foundation. They hope that through their own efforts, Zhao Lei's love and kindness will be passed on to more people. Soon after its establishment, the Foundation received many donations and grants from all walks of life. These donations have been used to support underprivileged students, help people with disabilities, and support environmental protection causes. Thanks to their joint efforts, the foundation has grown to become a well-known charity in the region.
In the process, Xiaoya also found her own happiness and home. She met a kind, considerate man, and the two loved and supported each other. They participate in the work of the foundation together, and convey love and positive energy with practical actions. And the ex-mother-in-law also found a new purpose and meaning in her life in the work of the foundation. She often visits poor families with volunteers, cares about the living conditions of vulnerable groups, and interprets love and responsibility with her actions.
However, just as the Foundation's career was thriving, an unexpected piece of news shattered the peace once again. When Xiaoya was sorting out Zhao Lei's relics, she found a diary. This diary records the bits and pieces of Zhao Lei's life and his vision and planning for his future life. On the last page of the diary, Zhao Lei wrote a paragraph: "I hope that my departure can bring some changes and inspiration to Xiaoya and her mother. I hope that they can face the future life bravely and continue to pass on love and kindness. ”
This passage deeply touched Xiaoya. She understands that Zhao Lei's last wish is not only to hope that they can live happily and happily, but also to hope that they can assume social responsibility, pass on love and positive energy, and bring hope and warmth to more people. Xiaoya decided to use this passage as the motto of the foundation, always reminding herself and the volunteers not to forget their original intentions and continue to move forward.
The story doesn't end here, because life is always full of unknowns and possibilities. Xiaoya, her ex-mother-in-law and the volunteers of the foundation will continue to work hard to write their wonderful stories with love and kindness. And this story also tells us a truth: no matter how many ups and downs and tribulations we have experienced, as long as we maintain a kind and grateful heart, we can find that life is full of beauty.
