Pass Your Love On
Waiting for the airplane to take off, I was happy to get a seat by myself. Just then, an air hostess approached me and asked, “Would you mind 21 your seat? A couple would like to sit together.” The only 22 seat was next to a girl with her arms in casts (石膏绷带), a black-and-blue face, and a sad expression. “ 23 am I going to sit there,” I thought immediately. But a soft voice spoke, “She needs help.” Finally, I 24 to move to that seat.
The girl was named Kathy. She 25 in a car accident and now was on her way for 26 .
When the snack and juice arrived, it did not take me long to 27 that Kathy would not be able to 28 herself. I considered 29 to feed her but hesitated, as it seemed too 30 to offer a service to a 31 . But then I realized that Kathy’s need was more 32 than my discomfort. I offered to help her eat, and 33 she was uncomfortable to accept, she 34 as I expected. We became closer and closer in a short period of time. By the end of the five-hour trip, my heart 35 , and the 36 was really better spent than if I had just sat by myself.
I was very glad I had reached 37 my comfort zone to sit next to Kathy and feed her. Love 38 flows beyond human borders and removes the fears that keep us 39 . When we 40 to serve another, we grow to live in a larger and more rewarding world.
