One very cold and rainy night in the winter of 2012, my husband and I were in a fast food restaurant. We were about to begin our meal
a man walked in. He was completely
from the rain and went into the men's room.
I watched him go by, then I said to my husband, "That man must have had nothing to eat in a long time." When the man came out of the men's room, he just
himself in a chair, not going anywhere near the food counter. I
that he didn't have any money for food and
wanted to dry off for a while.
I just couldn't eat my food knowing that someone else was sitting
only a few tables away. So, I
a $20.00 bill from my shopping money to my husband. "Please get him dinner," I said. "We can do with less money this week."
My husband
the man and quietly asked if he needed some food. The man
at us. "A small cup of coffee would be great," he said. "Thank you so much!" He
wasn't going to take advantage of us, but we
that he should have a full meal, which he gratefully(感激地)
.
After he
the food, he thanked my husband and my husband said, "No. Thank my
. She noticed that you were
."
The man asked me, "
did you know I haven't eaten in a long time?" I smiled at him and said nothing , just asking him to
the change(零钱) from the $20.00.
Giving others a
whenever they’re in trouble not only brings happiness to the ones who
it but also to the ones who give it. I am so grateful that I was able to
with someone truly in need. It is a little bit of extra warmth on a rainy day.
