Every morning my friend would stop on the way to work to have a quick breakfast with her 8-year-old son. Then she
36 him off at school. They ate the same thing every morning: an egg sandwich, juice, coffee for her, and milk for him.
One day she ordered a(n)
37 breakfast. Once they finished eating and were heading out of the door, she
38 , said good morning to a homeless man sitting outside of the
39 , and gave him the breakfast she had ordered for him. He
40 her, telling her it was his first meal during the last several
41 . She couldn’t help but feel
42 and was glad she finally took
43 .
She told her son that she had seen the man every day that week there and that
44 , herself included, had offered him
45 , support, food, or drink. She
46 explained that homelessness could happen to anyone and that it was important to
47 needy people.
So her “Tradition of Kindness”
48 . Each day she and her son went on to
49 the homeless man breakfast. The
50 was kept until they moved away several years later,
51 the experience was firmly put into her son’s mind.
My friend
52 every time she tells me that this “Tradition of Kindness” goes on with her son, who remembers this
53 tradition. Now working in a company, her son stops every morning at Starbucks for a coffee and offers a homeless person a breakfast before going to the
54 .
What a great tradition that he can
55 to his children as well!
