I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was Sociology(社会学). It was asked to go out and smile at three people.
I am a very person and thought this would be a piece of cake. Soon after, my husband, youngest son, and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line, waiting to be , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to away, and then even my husband did.
As I turned around I a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor men. As I looked down at the short man, he was smiling. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he stood there. He said, “Good day” as he ____ the few coins he had been holding.
The young lady at the counter asked him they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss” because that was all they could . He just wanted to be warm.
Then I really felt it—the compulsion(冲动)was great that I almost reached out and hugged the little man ___ the blue eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging(判断) my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on tray(托盘).
I then walked around the corner to the that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed man’s hand. He looked up at me, with in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn: acceptance without condition.
