I took my 9 - year - old daughter, Susan and 5 - year - old son, Robbie to the shopping center. As we got there, we saw a big sign that said, “Petting Zoo”. The kids jumped up and asked, “Daddy, can we go?”
Both my wife and I were out of work. However, I said “Sure”, giving them a quarter each. They went away, leaving only fifty cents left in my pocket.
The Petting Zoo is made up of a hundred of little baby animals of all kinds. Kids pay their money and stay in the enclosure(围场) pleased with the little animals while their parents are shopping.
A few minutes later, I saw Susan walking along behind me. I was surprised and asked what happened. She said sadly, “Well, Daddy, a ticket for Petting Zoo costs fifty cents. So I gave Robbie my quarter.” Then she said the most beautiful thing I ever heard. She repeated the family motto(座右铭), which is “Love is Action!”
I knew clearly no one loves little animals more than Susan. She had watched both my wife and me do and say “Love is Action!” for years, and now she had put it into her lifestyle. It had become part of her, because she knew the whole family motto. It's not only “Love is Action!”, it's “Love is Sacrificial (牺牲的) Action!” Love always pays a price.
I was moved. We went back to the Petting Zoo. Susan stood with her hands and chin(下巴) resting on the fence and just watched Robbie go crazy petting and feeding the animals. I had fifty cents burning a hole in my pocket. I put my hand into my pocket and took out the money. Sure, I must do that!

### B
我带着9岁的女儿苏珊和5岁的儿子罗比去了购物中心。我们到达那里时，看到一个大牌子，上面写着“宠物乐园”。孩子们跳起来问道：“爸爸，我们能去吗？”
我和妻子都失业了。不过，我还是说“当然可以”，并给了他们每人一枚25美分的硬币。他们走了，我口袋里只剩下50美分了。
宠物乐园里有上百只各种各样的小动物幼崽。孩子们付钱后就待在围场里，开心地和小动物们玩耍，而他们的父母则去购物。
几分钟后，我看到苏珊跟在我后面走。我很惊讶，问她发生了什么事。她难过地说：“嗯，爸爸，宠物乐园的门票要50美分。所以我把我的25美分硬币给了罗比。”然后她说了我听过的最美好的话。她重复了我们家的座右铭：“爱是行动！”
我很清楚，没有人比苏珊更爱小动物了。多年来，她一直看着我和妻子践行并宣扬“爱是行动！”，现在她把它融入了自己的生活方式中。它已经成为她的一部分，因为她知道我们家完整的座右铭。它不仅是“爱是行动！”，更是“爱是牺牲的行动！”爱总是要付出代价的。
我被感动了。我们回到了宠物乐园。苏珊站在那里，双手和下巴搭在围栏上，只是看着罗比兴奋地抚摸和投喂动物。我口袋里的50美分仿佛要烧出一个洞来。我把手伸进口袋，拿出了钱。当然，我必须这么做！
