一个人把一双鞋子拿到一家鞋店，并对修鞋匠说，“请帮我修这双鞋子。”
“当然可以，先生，”鞋匠说。
“什么时候能修好？”那个人问。
“我有点忙，但到星期四我会修好鞋子的。”他说。
“很好，”那人说，并离开了那家店。
第二天早上，他收到一封信，提供他一份在国外的工作。24小时内，他登上飞机去接受那份新工作。
二十年过去了，他回到了故乡。
他记起了那双鞋。
“那是一双好鞋，”他想，“我想知道鞋匠是否还在那儿，是否还有那双鞋。我要去看看。”
他很高兴看到鞋匠还在那家店里，虽然他已很老了。
“早上好，”他对鞋匠说，“二十年前，我拿了一双鞋子来修。你记得还有那双鞋吗？”
“名字？”老鞋匠问。
“史密斯，”那人回答。
