　　Understanding

　　The drawing depicts a common incident in our daily lives. The exchange of words between the man and woman shows a lot about them. While the man's politeness is demonstrated when apologizing for having done something wrong, something that should be noticed even more is the understanding of the woman in accepting his apology.

　　Understanding is a virtue of human beings. It allows us to enjoy the warmth of the sunshine and can bridge the gap of human relationships. Understanding, which can be considered as patience and as a kind of self restrained behavior, is needed in every part of our lives. Understanding can also be regarded as a good behavior. It refers to a good way in which we sincerely and genuinely show politeness, kindness, friendship and respect to people. It is very important for our relationships with others because we are often judged by our manners, which shows our education, our cultural quality and our inner qualities.

　　With understanding, we can warm each other's hearts and win friendships, and this can be sometimes even more powerful than gun barrels. So, in our daily life, we should always follow the golden rule: Do, as you would like to have done to you.
