| After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter. Dear son, I want to thank you for teaching me a very 1 lesson in life by the great example you 2 . When we were eating at the café in Bondi and a person who had 3 his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it, without any 4 , you went over and put the 5 $2 into his hand . When we were leaving, you 6 threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said 7 like, "Some kids will really enjoy 8 this." Last week, a young man 9 me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have 10 money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, "How much 11 is he?" She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car 12 he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and put in 15 13 , which came to just over 14 . That is an easy mistake 15 both gauges run fast. Something made me think of you and 16 you did that night at the café in Bondi. I handed the man $6. He was so 17 and said, "But why would you do this for me?" I just smiled as I thought of you. Thank you again, son, for teaching me that "it’s 18 to give than to receive." Now when I see a five-cent coin on the 19 and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it 20 , just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it. Love always, Mum. | ||||
