1)순수한 기부는 보상을 받아
2)치토스 사랑은 못말려

1> Louisiana boy receives surprising reward after generously

giving away his only dollar 

순수한 기부는 보상을 받는다니까

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LpG4qu-9wk

0:00 It's amazing how far a single dollar will go when it's given out of

kindness (1달러를) 선한 마음으로 기부하면.

Inside Buck Feather, an outdoor sporting store in Baton

Rouge, Louisiana, we met a great American success story. At 42 owner

Matt Busbice and his partners have built and sold 설립하고 매각했다 several outdoor

companies worth hundreds of millions.

0:27 But Matt says he's never felt richer than 그때만큼 ~한 때가 없었다 he did the day he got

the dollar 그 1달러를 받았던 날. "I haven't had that much faith in humanity 인간성에 대한 많은 믿음 in a very long time." He says it all began about a month ago. It was early morning,

and the fire alarm was going off inside his condo complex콘도 단지 내부에서.

0:47 So, Matt shot out of bed 침대에서 벌떡 일어나 and raced down the stairs only to

discover there was no fire 불이 난게 아니었다. But he was awake now, so even though he

was wearing mismatched clothes 마구잡이로 입었고 and all disheveled 모든 게 어그러졌다, Matt decided to go out for a cup of coffee.

1:05 And as he was about to enter the shop, he remembered he hadn't

done his morning prayer 아침기도 안했네. So as the security camera shows, Matt

stepped to the corner of the patio 안뜰 구석으로. "And I started to slowly open my

eyes, and there's a kid coming at me, about my height 내 키만한." With his fist

clenched주먹을 꽉 쥐고, so Matt prepared for battle.

1:27 And he goes 다가와서... and reveals a dollar bill. "And I go 다가가서, 'What?""

"If you're homeless, here's a dollar," This is 9-year-old Kelvin Ellis Jr. "I always wanted to help a homeless person, and I finally had the opportunity." Kelvin says he had just gotten the dollar for good grades 시험 잘 보았다고. 

It was the only money he had to his name 제 이름으로 (가진).

1:54 Matt was so touched. He invited Kelvin in for a snack 간식거리라도 and

connected with boy's father, who was next door, and promised to stay

in touch 연락을 계속 하기로as a reward for his kindness. Matt gave Kelven a shopping spree 흥청망청 쇼핑 40 seconds to pick out whatever he wanted in the store including a new bike.

2:13 Kelvin says it was great but definitely not what he wanted 바라고 한 일은 절대 아님 to get

for his dollar. What were you hoping would come from that? 

"Joy, because I helped someone. Give some away, and 뭔가를 주면 you feel like 기분이 들겁니다 you got a lot of things from it 그로부터 많은 것을 얻는."

2:31 "If you give, you're actually going to get more 더 많은 것을 얻는다 out of that. I

couldn't grasp 이해하지 못했다 that as a kid 어린아이였을때. And if we can spread that around,

everything changes."      A dollar so well spent 돈 제대로 잘 썼네.


2> Cheetos-loving dog gets mad when owner tries to take his snack

치토스 사랑은 사람이나 개나 못말려. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neQJqQui1Mw


0:02 A woman in Chicago learning the hard way 힘들게 배웠다. She needs to keep

her Golden Retriever named Ben away from Human snacks. So here's

what happened. Ben got a hold of 손에 넣었다 a bag of Cheetos.

0:12 My dog is eating hot Cheetos out of the bag 봉지째로 and he's mad at me 나에게 화났어.

Ben, you cannot eat those. Give me your hot Cheetos. You cannot eat

them.

0:26 Okay. I'm not getting near him. He's literally so mad. This is

what hot Cheetos do to people. Gve me your Cheetos. I'm done.

0:40 Oh my gosh. Bearing fangs 송곳니를 들어내고. You got growls 으르렁거리네.

0:44 She said her dog had never been possessive of any kind of food (어떤 음식에도) 소유욕에 빠져있지는 않았다 until now. So she did distract him 개의 주의를 분산시키고 and grab the bag 치토스 봉지. But I've never even seen the Golden Retrievers do that.


참조 :

I've been never felt richer than when I'm surrounded by the people I love 

                                                         when I help others in need 

                                                         when I'm in good health 

                                                         when I'm available to go after my dream 

I've never felt happier than when I am with you 


I went on a shopping spree after getting my bonus.

 people go on on eating spree during the holidays 

                                a drinking spree 

                                shopping haul

I'm just giving it away 

I want to do the good thing by giving it away to the charity.

They give away free samples at the store 

he accidentally gave away the secret

This is money well spent.

 it will be money well spent.

 The trip to Georgia with my family it was time well spent.

 it must be time well spent.


A well spent day brings happy sleep. - 다빈치 -
