I drove to a local supermarket the other day. My shopping list was
and my wallet was light. Still, I needed to get a week’s worth of groceries for my family. I parked my car, looked down at my list, and hoped I could
it all.
As I
the door, I saw a man with kind eyes and a gentle
. He said he was collecting for a local food bank that helped to
the hungry in my area. He handed me a second shopping list of things they could use and asked me to
if I could. I smiled back, took the
and walked into the store. I really wanted to help, but wasn’t sure if I could this time.
I walked through the store, picking up vegetables, soup, spaghetti, bread, milk, cereal, macaroni, bananas, and a dozen other things. I slowly
each item off my list until I was done. When I looked down at my full cart I
again if I even had enough to pay for it all. Then, as I put my own list back into my pocket, I saw the food
list under it. I smiled and decided to trust my heart.
With the food bank in mind, I went over and
two of the biggest boxes of rice the store had and put them in my cart. It took
six dollars out of my wallet to pay for them,
my heart felt six times larger when I did. And when everything was
, I had just enough to pay for it all.
It
so little to make our world a better place. A few dollars can help to fill a child’s
belly(肚子). A smile and hug can help to
a hurting heart. An encouraging word can inspire someone else to live and to love. A random
of kindness can change another’s day and life. It is up to us,
. If we can
a few dollars on rice , then we can share a love that will last forever.
