I used to work as a waitress in a little restaurant. I felt frustrated then so I had been
31 that period. I hadn’t told anybody except my employer. Somehow a
32 had overheard (无意中听到) my saying that I had to go to another
33 . As I passed her table, she
34 me a card with her phone number on it. She explained that she lived in Sydney and that I should call
35 I needed any help.
Some weeks later, it was time for
36 appointment(约会) in Sydney and I flew there. I was
37 as I had never been there before and didn’t
38 anyone else there. So I
39 to ring the lady who had given me her
40 number, even though I had only met her that once.
41 I had arrived, she was very excited and came
42 to meet me. She gave me a bed and a meal and took me to my appointment the next day and afterwards, she took me back to the
43 .
She treated me so
44 that I offered her a gift to express my
45 but she refused. She said “Your
46 to me is to offer your help to another when it is
47 .” Over the months we kept in touch but then for some reason our communication got less and less
48 .
I always felt I wasn’t giving enough to others as a
49 , but she had told me that I gave her very much and the way I
50 people was a gift. I now give a hand to others every day even if it is only a smile to those who have none to give.
