Living green doesn’t mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well educated like a white-collar but physically tough like a blue-collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s of the last century and living in one of China’s big cities, with a monthly income well above 5,000 yuan (about US $700).
The life of a green collar may go something like this; Turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.
Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief(摆脱贫困)projects in China.
“They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it.” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the club.

举一反三
At a certain point during the discussion, one of the students—a young man of about thirty—described an event that happened at Christmas. He and his five-year-old son were decorating the Christmas tree, and a little boy came to the front door begging. If you ever visit Mexico, you will see that the people there take begging as nothing to get upset about and nothing to get embarrassed by.
So, this little boy came to the door, a boy about the same age as my student’s son. The father and the son went to the front door, and the father went back with his five-year-old son and said to him, “Give him one of your toys.” At the words, the little boy quickly picked up some toy, and his father said to him, “No, no-give him your favorite toy.”
And the little boy, like a little tiger, said, “No way!” He cried; he refused. But the father, like a big tiger in a way, insisted gently, “No, you must give him one of your favorite toys.”
And finally the boy, with his head down, picked up a toy he had just gotten. The father waited in the living room, and the boy walked to the front door with the toy in his hand. The father waited and waited.
What do you think happened?
After a couple of minutes, his son came running back into the living room, his face radiant (喜气洋洋). “Daddy,” he said, “can I do that again?”
I think I have got the answer to the question.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti, a famous 19thcentury poet and artist, was once 26 by an elderly man. The old man had some sketches (素描) and drawings that he 27 Rossetti to look at them and tell him if they were any good, or 28 they at least showed potential(潜在的)talent.
Rossetti looked them 29 carefully. After the first few, he knew that they were worthless, showing not the least sign of artistic talent. But Rossetti was a 30 man, and he told the elderly 31 as gently as possible that the pictures were of little value and showed little talent. He was sorry, 32 he could not 33 to the man.
The visitor was 34 , but seemed to expect Rossetti’s 35 .He then apologized for 36 Rossetti’s time, but would he just 37 a few more drawings—these done by a(n) 38 art student?Rossetti looked over the 39 batch (一批) of sketches and immediately became 40 over the talent they revealed(显示;透露) .“These,” he said,“Oh, these are good. This young student has great talent. He should be 41 every help and encouragement in his career as an artist. He has a hopeful future if he will work and stick to it.”
Rossetti could see that the old man was 42 moved.“Who is this fine young artist?” he asked.“Your son?” “No,” said the old man sadly.“It was I 43 painted the pictures forty years ago. 44 I had heard your praise then!For you see, I got discouraged and 45 drawing—too soon.”

So that is what I did. I got a job at a very nice restaurant and 39 every penny I could and 40 I had enough to buy my car, I did! The day I brought that car home, my dad was the first one I wanted to 41 to. “Look, dad, a car of my own. If you ever want a ride, I’ll only 42 you five dollars.” I offered with a smile.
“I see,” was all he said.
One day, there was something wrong with my father’s truck. So he needed a 43 to work. The sun wasn’t even up when we left the house , 44 it was already getting warm out. It was going to be a(n) 45 day. As I dropped my dad off, I 46 him, dressed in his work clothes, getting his 47 from the truck (车尾箱) of my car. Watching his sun-weathered face, and even from a distance I could tell there were 48 lines than I ever remembered being there before. I realized how hard my dad works for the family. My father is a cement finisher(水泥修整工).
In that instant, it 49 to me that he actually got down on his hands and knees to sweat over hot concrete to make a living for his family. And he did this day in and day out, 50 hot it got. Never, not once, had I hear him 51 about it. To him we were “worth” it. And never once did he “charge” us for it.
When he closed the trunk, his tools set off to the side, he walked over to my window to 52 me five dollars. I rolled down the window and said “Good-bye, dad. Keep your five dollars. It’s my 53 . Don’t work too hard. I love you.”
His 54 met mine, then glanced away in the direction of his waiting tools, he 55 his throat and said, “Oh, and… me, too.”

As months went on and his health grew worse, I noticed an unexpected change in attitude that came over him.He had also been a happy person with a cheerful personality, but rather than give in to discouragement and self-pity, he took comfort in God and humanity(人性).His talks focused on others rather than himself, and he spoke of the afterlife as something he was prepared for, believing that his concerned ancestors, including his mother and father, were there waiting for him.
During the last few months, weeks, and days of his life, he was kindly cared for by family, friends, his loving wife, who looked after both his physical and emotional needs, and workers from a local hospice (安养院) came to the home to regulate(调节) his medication (药)and provide any other needed support.He didn"t complain about his fate, and he willingly allowed others to serve him.
Indeed, one might think why God allows death and suffering in our world, but for me, such experiences taught me to value family more and kindness for others.You often can"t learn these important attributes(属性)in the lap of luxury(处在优裕舒适的环境中), and perhaps, such an experience is the greatest and final gift the illness can give those left behind.
