Waiting for the airplane to take off, I was happy to get a seat by myself. Just then, a flight attendant
41 me and asked, "Would you mind changing your seat? A couple would like to sit together. “The only other
42 seat was next to a woman with both arms in casts（石膏）, a black-and-blue face, and a depressed emotion."
43 am I going to sit there" was my immediate thought.
44 then a deeper, quieter voice spoke, "Opportunity.”Finally I took my new seat and
45 that Kathy had been in an auto collision, and she was on her way for
46 。When the snack of nuts and juice arrived,
47 did not take me long to realize that Kathy would not be able to
48 herself. I considered offering to feed her but
49 , as it seemed too close a service to offer to a stranger. But then I decided that Kathy's need was more important than my
50 . I offered to help her eat, and although she too was uncomfortable about __
51___it, she did. The experience was
52 and she and I ___
53__close in a short period of time. By the end of the five-hour trip, my heart was fully
54, and the time was __
55___ better spent than if I had just sat by myself.
I was very glad I had reached beyond my comfort zone to sit next to Kathy and feed her. Love sometimes
56 beyond human borders and dissolves the fears
57 keep us separate. When we stretch to serve another, we grow to live in a larger, more
58 world.
Help me move
59 the small self so I can connect with the hearts of others.
When I give
60 to another, I feed my own soul.
