对，要的就是这个时刻
I have a Rewards Card for Showcase Cinema that allows me to earn rewards points with each purchase that I make at the theatre and periodically provides me with a free popcorn, soda or movie ticket coupon.
我有一张Showcase电影院的积分卡，每次消费都会积点，然后定期给我提供免费的爆米花，汽水，和电影优惠券。
I had recently accumulated enough rewards points to obtain a coupon for a free popcorn.
最近我的积分可以换免费的爆米花了。
Standing in the movie theatre ticket line on Saturday, I noticed just ahead of me, a father with his 2 small boys also waiting to buy their tickets for the Matinee Movie.
周六，我正在排队买电影票，注意到有一个父亲带着两个孩子就排在我的前面，准备看日场电影。
Knowing that movies can be quite expensive for families nowadays, I tapped the Dad on the shoulder and asked, ‘I have a coupon for free popcorn and don’t plan to use it, would you like it for one of your boys?’
如今在电影上的花销对于一个家庭来说也是有点小贵，所以我拍了下那位父亲的肩膀，问道：“我正好有一张爆米花的免费优惠券，我不打算用了，要不你给其中一个小朋友来一份吧。
He said, ‘Yeah, sure. That’s great! Thanks!’ and took the coupon.
”父亲答道，“好的，太棒了，谢谢你！”说着手下了优惠券。
A few minutes later, after they had purchased their tickets, one of his small sons who appeared to be about 9 or 10 years old, walked up to me and silently held out a shiny penny to show me.
几分钟以后，他们都买好了票，其中的一个小男孩，看起来大概9到10岁的样子，向我走来，然后默默地拿出一美分给我看。
I took it and said, ‘Wow that’s cool! It’s really shiny!’
我拿过来看着说道：“这个好酷，而且它看起来很闪。”
He quietly replied, ‘It’s a 2011’. As I handed it back to him.
“它是2011年生产的”小男孩答道，接着我就把硬币还给了他。
He pushed the penny towards me once again and quietly said, ‘You can keep it’.
他又把硬币递过来说：“你可以收下它”。
Showing my gratitude, I replied, ‘Wow that’s awesome, thank you very much” and asked, ‘Where did you get it!’ and he said quite softly, ‘I found it in my Dad’s car’.
为了表示我的感激我说道：“这枚硬币太棒了，非常感谢！你是从哪里找到的？”“是从我爸爸的车里”他轻声说道。
I said, ‘Oh that’s cool, thanks!
我说：“很不错呢，谢谢！”
He smiled, quietly turned and walked back to his Dad who returned my smile with a knowing smile of his own.
他笑了，然后转身朝着他爸爸走去，只见他爸爸也报以微笑，好似他知道事情的始末。
It’s the small special moments like that that can make an ordinary day, special.
这个美好特别的一刻，让平凡无奇的一天变得有意义。
