Mr Hatch lived a lonely life. He walked alone to work every day and ate his lunch alone in a corner. He never smiled. He never talked to anyone on his way home. In the evening he would read a newspaper and go to bed early.
His life changed, however, one day when he got a heart-shaped box full of chocolate in the mail, along with a piece of paper that said, “Somebody loves you.” At first, he couldn't believe it, but as he read the message, he began to laugh and dance around. The message opened his heart to the power of love. Soon he found himself being cheerful. He became a joy at work and began to help out people in the neighbourhood. As the days and weeks went by, his laughter, smiles, kindness, happiness and love touched everyone around him.
Later, Mr Hatch found out that the heart-shaped box belonged to somebody else. It was a mistake. He felt sad and went back to his old ways. When his neighbours found out, however, they decided not to lose the light he shared. They surprised him with a party and a long banner(条幅) that read: “Everybody Loves Mr Hatch.” Mr Hatch cried when he knew that somebody loved him after all. Then he laughed, smiled and hugged his friends.
We all have a little bit of Mr Hatch in us. At times we all feel unloved and unlovable. However, somebody does love us.

哈奇先生过着孤独的生活。他每天独自步行去上班，独自在角落里吃午饭。他从不微笑。在回家的路上，他从不和任何人说话。晚上，他会看报纸，然后早早地上床睡觉。
然而，有一天，他的生活发生了变化。那天，他收到了一个装满巧克力的心形盒子，还有一张纸条，上面写着：“有人爱你。”起初，他不敢相信，但当他读到这条留言时，他开始大笑并四处跳舞。这条留言让他敞开心扉，感受到了爱的力量。很快，他发现自己变得开朗起来。他在工作中变得快乐，开始帮助邻居。随着日子一天天、一周周过去，他的笑声、微笑、善良、幸福和爱感动了他周围的每一个人。
