Lesson 10  The Joy of Sharing

본문정리

[1]

나는 우리 가족이 돈도 없었고 음식도 없었을 때 누군가가 우리 문 앞에서 문을 두드리던 어느 추수감사절을 기억 한다 한 남자가 추수감사절 저녁을 위한 커다란 칠면조와 다른 물건들을 지닌 채로 문 앞에 서있었다.

당신 친구중의 한명이 당신이 도움을 필요로 하다는 것을 알았기 때문에 제가 왔습니다. 그리고 당신이 직접적인 도움을 받으려 하지 않으려 하기 때문에 그가 절 보냈습니다. “즐거운 추수감사절 보네세요” 라며 그 낯선 사람에 아버지에게 말했다.

그 경험에 깊게 감명 받았기 때문에 나는 내 자신에게 내 여건이 좋아지면 나도 도움이 필요한 사람들에게 똑같은 일을 하겠다고 내 자신에게 약속했다.

내가 18살이 되었을 때, 나는 추수감사절 의식을 만들었다. 한 가족 혹은 두 가족들에게 충분한 음식을 사서 배달원처럼 차려입고 가장 가난한 이웃으로 가서 단지 문 앞에서 노크를 했다. 나는 항상 내가 어렸을 때 내 추수감사절의 경험에 대한 메모를 같이 넣었다.

[2]

몇 년전 추사감사절 동안에 나의 새부인과 사업파트너와 함께 뉴욕시의 맨하탄에 갔었다.  우리가 우리의 가족과 함께 지내지 못했기에 아내는 슬퍼했다. 대개는 그녀는 크리스마스 동안에 집안을 장식하면서 집에 머물렀지만 우리는 호텔방에 틀어박혀 있었다.

“부인, 오래된 나무 대신에 오늘 몇 명의 사람들을  장식해 보는 게 어떨까?” 라고 이야기 했다. 내가 추수감사절에 항상 해왔던 것을 그녀에게 이야기 했을때 그녀는 흥분했다. 우리는 뉴욕시의 가장 가난한 지역인 할렘으로 결정했다.

내가 우선 라디오 인터뷰를 해야 했기에 나는 내 파트너들에게 밴을 구하는 것으로 일단 시작하자고 요청했다.

내가 인터뷰를 마치고 돌아왔을때 그들이 뉴욕시에 밴이 없다고 이야기 했다.

모든 렌트카 가게가 문닫았거나 혹은 밴이 없었다. 그래서 우린 정지신호등에서 기다리면서 밴을 찾아보기로 결정했다. 운전수가 정지하면 우리는 건너가서 창문을 노크했다. 운전자가 창문을 내리면 나는 “오늘은 추수감사절이니 우리가 사람들에게 먹을 것을 줄 수 있도록 우리는 기꺼이 할렘이로 데려다 줄 수 있겠습니까? 라고 물었었다. 매번 운전자는 재빨리 고개를 돌리고 무섭게 창문을 올린다음 아무말도 하지 않고 떠나버렸다.

결국 우리의 질문이 더 나아지게 되었다. 우리가 창문을 두드리고 사람들이 창문을 내리면 “ 오늘은 추수감사절입니다. 우리는 가난한 사람들을 돕기 바라고, 당신이 뉴욕시의 가장 가난한 이웃들에게 우리를 데려다 주실수 있는지 궁금합니다” 라고 말했다.  그렇게 한 것이 약간은 더 효과적으로 보였지만 여전히 효과는 없었다. 그리고 나서 우리를 태워다 주는 사람들에게 100달러는 제안하기 시작했다. 그것은 훨씩더 효과가 있었으나 우리가 그들에게 할렘으로 태워달라고 말하면 그든은 안된다고 이야기 하며 떠나버렸다.

우리는 이미 거절을 한 모든 24명의 사람들에 대해 이야기 했다. 내 파트너들은 그 계획을 포기하려 했으나 나는 “평균의 법칙이다. 이제 누군가가 예라고 대답할 차례다”라고 이야기 했다.

Lesson 10  The Joy of Sharing

I remember one Thanksgiving [ when / which ] our family had no money and no food, and someone came [ knocking / knocked ] on our door. A man was standing there with a huge turkey and other things for a holiday supper. "I'm here because a your friend knows you're in need and since you wouldn't accept direct help, he sent me. Have a great Thanksgiving," the stranger announced to my father.

Deeply [ moving / moved ] by the experience, I promised myself that [ should / would ] my circumstances [ improve / approve ], I [ would do / would have done ] the same thing for people in need. [ By / By the time ] I was 18 I created my Thanksgiving ritual. I would buy enough food for one or two families, dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood, and just knocking on a door. I always included a note about my Thanksgiving experience as a kid.

나는 우리 가족이 돈도 없었고 음식도 없었을 때 누군가가 우리 문 앞에서 문을 두드리던 어느 추수감사절을 기억 한다 한 남자가 추수감사절 저녁을 위한 커다란 칠면조와 다른 물건들을 지닌 채로 문 앞에 서있었다.

당신 친구중의 한명이 당신이 도움을 필요로 하다는 것을 알았기 때문에 제가 왔습니다. 그리고 당신이 직접적인 도움을 받으려 하지 않으려 하기 때문에 그가 절 보냈습니다. “즐거운 추수감사절 보네세요” 라며 그 낯선 사람에 아버지에게 말했다.

그 경험에 깊게 감명 받았기 때문에 나는 내 자신에게 내 여건이 좋아지면 나도 도움이 필요한 사람들에게 똑같은 일을 하겠다고 내 자신에게 약속했다.

내가 18살이 되었을 때, 나는 추수감사절 의식을 만들었다. 한 가족 혹은 두 가족들에게 충분한 음식을 사서 배달원처럼 차려입고 가장 가난한 이웃으로 가서 단지 문 앞에서 노크를 했다. 나는 항상 내가 어렸을 때 내 추수감사절의 경험에 대한 메모를 같이 넣었다.

Several years ago I was in Manhattan, New York City, with my new wife and business partners during Thanksgiving. She was sad because we were not with our family. Normally she [ would be / would have been ] home decorated the house for Christmas, but we were stuck in a hotel room.

I said, "Honey, look, why don't we decorate some lives today instead of some old trees?" When I told her what I always do on Thanksgiving, she got [ exciting / excited ]. We decided on the poorest section of New York City, Harlem.

Since today is Thanksgiving, we'd like to know if you would be willing to drive us to Harlem so we can feed some people." Every time the driver would look away quickly, furiously roll up the window and [ pull / to pull ] away without saying anything.

[2]

몇 년전 추사감사절 동안에 나의 새부인과 사업파트너와 함께 뉴욕시의 맨하탄에 갔었다.  우리가 우리의 가족과 함께 지내지 못했기에 아내는 슬퍼했다. 대개는 그녀는 크리스마스 동안에 집안을 장식하면서 집에 머물렀지만 우리는 호텔방에 틀어박혀 있었다.

“부인, 오래된 나무 대신에 오늘 몇 명의 사람들을  장식해 보는 게 어떨까?” 라고 이야기 했다. 내가 추수감사절에 항상 해왔던 것을 그녀에게 이야기 했을때 그녀는 흥분했다. 우리는 뉴욕시의 가장 가난한 지역인 할렘으로 결정했다.

내가 우선 라디오 인터뷰를 해야 했기에 나는 내 파트너들에게 밴을 구하는 것으로 일단 시작하자고 요청했다.

내가 인터뷰를 마치고 돌아왔을 때 그들이 뉴욕시에 밴이 없다고 이야기 했다.

모든 렌트카 가게가 문닫았거나 혹은 밴이 없었다. 그래서 우린 정지신호등에서 기다리면서 밴을 찾아보기로 결정했다. 운전수가 정지하면 우리는 건너가서 창문을 노크했다. 운전자가 창문을 내리면 나는 “오늘은 추수감사절이니 우리가 사람들에게 먹을 것을 줄 수 있도록 우리는 기꺼이 할렘이로 데려다 줄 수 있겠습니까? 라고 물었었다. 매번 운전자는 재빨리 고개를 돌리고 무섭게 창문을 올린다음 아무말도 하지 않고 떠나버렸다.

Eventually we got better at asking. We'd knock on the window, they'd [ roll it down / roll down it ]. and we'd say, "Today is Thanksgiving. We'd like to help some poor people, and we wonder if you'd be willing to drive us to the poorest neighborhood in New York City." That seemed slightly more [ effective /effectively ] but still didn't work. Then we started offering people $100 to drive us. That got us even closer, but when we told them to take us to Harlem, they said no and drove off.

We had talked to about two [ dozen / dozens ] people who all said no. My partners were ready to give up on the project, but I said, "It's the law of averages: somebody is going to say 'yes.'"

Sure enough, the perfect van drove up. It was perfect because it was extra big and [ should / would ] accommodate all of us. We went up, knocked on the window and we asked the driver, "Could you take us to Harlem? We'll pay you a hundred dollars."

결국 우리의 질문이 더 나아지게 되었다. 우리가 창문을 두드리고 사람들이 창문을 내리면 “ 오늘은 추수감사절입니다. 우리는 가난한 사람들을 돕기 바라고, 당신이 뉴욕시의 가장 가난한 이웃들에게 우리를 데려다 주실수 있는지 궁금합니다” 라고 말했다.  그렇게 한 것이 약간은 더 효과적으로 보였지만 여전히 효과는 없었다. 그리고 나서 우리를 태워다 주는 사람들에게 100달러는 제안하기 시작했다. 그것은 훨씩더 효과가 있었으나 우리가 그들에게 할렘으로 태워달라고 말하면 그든은 안된다고 이야기 하며 떠나버렸다.

우리는 이미 거절을 한 모든 24명의 사람들에 대해 이야기 했다. 내 파트너들은 그 계획을 포기하려 했으나 나는 “평균의 법칙이다. 이제 누군가가 예라고 대답할 차례다”라고 이야기 했다. 확실히 완벽한 밴이 다가왔다. 그것은 꽤 컸고 우리 모두를 태울 수 있기 때문에 완벽했다. 우리는 다가가서 창문을 두드리고 운전자에게 “할렘으로 우리는 태워줄 수 있나요? 당신에게 100달러를 지불하겠습니다.”라고 물었다.

The driver said, "You don't have to pay me. I'd be happy to take you. In fact, I'll take you to some of the most difficult spots in the whole city." Then he reached over on the seat and grabbed his hat. As he [ put it on / put on it ], I noticed that it said, "Salvation Army." The man's name was Captain John Rondon and he was the head of the Salvation Army in the South Bronx.

We climbed into the van with great happiness. He said, "I'll take you to places you never even thought of going. But tell me something. Why do you people want to do this?" I told him my story.

Captain Rondon took us into parts of the South Bronx that makes Harlem [ look / to look ] like Beverly Hills. When we arrived, we went into a store which we bought a lot of food and some baskets. We packed enough for seven families for 30 days. We went to buildings where half a dozen people calling "squatters" was living in one room. They had no electricity and no heat in the dead of winter, and they were surrounding by mice and cockroaches. I doubt that our help changed their lives or anything, but I know that for a short period of time their hearts, as well as [ ours / us ]  warmed up, and out of those people, someone might be showing the same sort of kindness to someone else.

You see, you can make anything [ happen / to happen ] if you commit to it and take action. Miracles like this happen every day ― even in a city [ where / which ] "there are no vans."

운전자는 “저에게 돈을 지불할 필요가 없습니다. 여러분들을 태워줄 수 있다면 행복합니다. 전 시내에서 가장 가난한 지역 몇군데로 당신들을 데려다 드리겠습니다.”라고 이야기 했다.  그가 좌석에 손을 뻗어서 그의 모자를 집어 들었다. 그가 그 모자를 썼을 때 나는 그 모자에 구세군이라고 적혀있는 것을 알아 차렸다.  그 남자의 이름은 존 론든 대장이었고 그는 South Bronx의 구세군의 대장이었다.

우리가 아주 기뻐하며 그의 밴에 올라탔을때 그는 “내가 당신들을 전에는 심지어는 가는 것 조차 생각해보지 못했을 곳으로 데려가겠습니다”라고 말했다. 그러나 "왜 사람들이 이렇게 하기를 원하십니까?" 하고 물었다.  나는 그에게 나의 이야기를 들려주었다.

론든대장이 할렘을 마치 비버리 힐즈처럼 보이게 하는 남 브롱코스의 지역으로 우리는 데리고 갔다. 우리가 도착했을 때 우리는 가게에 들렀고 거기에서 많은 음식과 약간의 바구니를 샀다.우리는 7가족이 30일 동안 지내기에 충분한 양을 포장했다. 우리는 무단거주자라 불리우는 6명의 사람들이 살고 있는 한방으로 들어갔다. 아주 추운 겨울에도 전기도 들어오지 않았고 난방도 되지 았았고 그들은 쥐와 바퀴벌레에 둘러쌓여 있었다.

나는 우리의 도움이 그들의 삶 혹은 어느것을 바꿀수 있을지는 의문이다. 하지만 그 짧은 시간동안 우리의 마음뿐 아니라 그들의 마음도 따뜻해 질것이며 그리고 그러한 사람들 중에 누군가는 다른 사람들에게 똑 같은 종류의 친절함을 보여줄 거라는 것을 안다.

여러분들도 알다시피 만약 여러분이 그것을 공약하고 실행에 옮긴다면 그일이 일어나도록 만들 수 있다. 이와 같은 기적은 매일 일어난다. 심지어 밴이 없는 도시의 한 구석에서 조차.
