Last weekend I was out walking with my dog. She loves wandering around and seeing
we meet, so it becomes a social walk rather than an exercise.
Then we
0ur neighbour who was preparing to sell her house. She was busy getting ready for her open house（看房时间）that afternoon . After talking a little we went our separate ways .I could tell it was a(n)
day for her.
After I got home, I quickly
some of the wonderful lavender（薰衣草) in my garden
Wonderful! They smelled good and the purple
were so pretty. I wrapped some packing paper around the bunch and
it to my neighbor for her open house. I loved her expression
she saw me there with a bunch of lavender! It
made me happy. It made her stop and take a deep
and maybe reduced her stress for a second
The next day I had a note in my mailbox from my neighbor thanking me for my
. She said everybody commented on how wonderful her house smelled She said the
0f kindness I showed helped
some of the stress she was feeling. Her note was like a big hug to me.
Never
that it's the gift from the heart that is the most
.I think sometimes we hesitate（犹豫) to do the
acts of kindness because we may think they aren't anything but actually they are probably the best gift
