While driving home today, I passed a man who was holding a sign, begging for donations. I had two dollars in my wallet. I decided that I was not going to give 1 money was so tight right now.
Then, I felt it 2 not to give, and therefore I decided to give him half of what I had. I rolled down my window and 3 him one dollar. He said, "God bless you!" and I said, "You too." It was not a full 4.
As I 5 away, I wished that I had spoken more to him, and I wished that I had given him all that I had, but instead I was too 6 to give more of myself.
On my way home, I wondered why helping others didn't make me happy. I wondered if I had 7 a powerful universal law—the law of giving from my heart instead of my head. Perhaps just 8 not giving it all from my heart, I had blocked (阻塞) what I need to 9 right now.
I did not feel guilty, 10 I did feel sad in my heart over my 11. My giving was from my head, not my heart. Now I 12 have the other dollar in my wallet. I hope that I will have a 13 soon to give it all.
It is true that all of us should have courage to give all that we have. Though we do 14 money to buy our own children food and clothes, Christmas presents, socks, toilet paper and so on, we are 15 to try our best to help those in need of our help.
