An old man,who works to build houses,was ready to retire.The employer(雇主) was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house.
The old man said yes,but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work.He turned to bad workmanship and used poor building materials.It was an unlucky way to end his working life.When the old man finished his work and the employer came to see the house,the employer handed the front door key to the old man. "This is your house,my gift to you."
What a shock!What a shame!If the old man had only known he was building his own house,he would have done it all so differently.Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.
So it is with us.We build our lives in a distracted(不專注的) way,willing to put up less than the best.At important points we do not give the job our best effort.Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built.If we had realized that,we would have done it differently.
It is the only life you will ever have.Even if you live it for only one day more,that day deserves to be lived with dignity(尊嚴(yán)).

(3)How did the old man feel when he realized that the last house he built was his home?

(4)Why does every day deserve to be lived with dignity?
