        One afternoon, as I was driving back home, I stopped at a busy crossing as the traffic light turned red.

        Suddenly, an old woman appeared and started asking for money. The old woman was standing very close to my car. As she begged, I closely watched her face. There were lots of wrinkles (皱纹) on her face. Her eyes showed lots of sadness and her body was shaking. I guessed there was no one to look after her so that she had to beg on the streets.

        After seeing this, I felt pity for her. I usually gave change to beggars. However, that day I gave her a lot so that she could have a good meal that evening.

        Without any hesitation (犹豫), I took out a large amount of money from my wallet and placed it in her hand. The old woman raised her face with a toothless smile, blessed (祝福) me and then went on her way. At the same time, the traffic light turned green, and it was time to move on.

        As I drove back home, I was in great joy because I was able to do something for at least one person. Her blessings will be one of the most valuable memories in my life.
