lesson 2 read and think
you find what you
are looking for
in the mountains above a busy, crowded city was a little town called pleasantville. people from the city often moved there because it was a quiet and peaceful place to live. mrs. noble was a real estate agent in pleasantville.
one day, a young couple came to her office. “we are thinking about moving here,” said jon. “can you tell us what kind of people live here? we want people just like our current neighbors, who are helpful, kind, and considerate.” mrs. noble replied, “i think you’ll like the people here just as much as your current neighbors. i think you will fit in very well.” cathy and jon were happy to hear that.
then, another man from the city came in. he said his name was frank and he was thinking of moving out of the city, because he didn’t like his neighbors and co-workers there. when mrs. noble asked him why, he complained about all the negative qualities of the people around him. when he finished speaking, mrs. noble replied, “i’m afraid you’ll find the people here to be the same.” the man said he would not live in such a place and left the office.
cathy and jon were upset. “you told us that we would find wonderful people here, but you told that man that he would find only rude and inconsiderate people,” said cathy.
“yes, i did,” said mrs. noble. “and i was telling the truth. you are looking for the best in people, so you will find good people here. he can only see the worst in people. in my experience, people find what they are looking for.”
