I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. My teacher’s last _ of the term was called “ Smile”. I am a very friendly person and always _ at everyone. So I thought this would be very __ .
Soon after we were given the project, my _ went out to McDonald’s. We were waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone around us began to move away, and even my husband did. There standing behind me were two homeless men_ .
As I looked down at the short gentleman with _ eyes, he said, “Good day.” The second man stood behind his friend. I _ the second man was mentally challenged (智障) and the blue-eyed gentleman was his helper.
The young __ at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss.” Because that was all they could _ .I smiled and asked the young lady to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray (托盘). I then said to the men, “ I did not do this for you. God is here whispering me to give you hope.” When I joined my husband, he smiled at me, saying, “That is __ God gave you to me, Honey, to give me hope.”
I returned to _ with this story in hand. I_ “my project” and the teacher read it. Then she looked up at me and said, “Can I _ this with the class?”
I slowly _ and she began to read and that was when I knew that we, as human beings, share this to help people and to be helped. In my own way I had _ the people at McDonald’s, my husband, sons, teacher, and every person that shared the classroom on the last night I spent as a college student.
