I'm grateful to have a roof over my head, food in my belly, and the ability to take care of my family. This is why I try to help those 1 whenever possible.
Here are some words from unlucky souls that 2 my mind about what's really important in life.
One hot day, I was sitting on my front door 3 a cold drink when a homeless young man wandered by my house.
"Hi, there. Would you like something to drink?" I asked.
"No, thank you," he 4 . "What I'd really like more than anything is a clean pair of 5 "
His response really 6 me right in my heart. I have a whole drawer of clean socks and he just wanted one pair.
Another time, I was coming home from work on payday (发薪日). I was 7 in the rush hour when I saw a man holding a cardboard that 8 "Need work or food. Anything helps."
I 9 my window, and gave him a 100-dollar bill.
"Thank you so much," he said 10 and then added, "Seriously, really need a job." I shared with him some 11 on possible employment opportunities and went on my way, hoping his luck would change for the 12 .
Most homeless people are like us. They're just 13 a hard time. They should win our respect in dealing with their everyday 14 . They're just people who might need a helping hand from their neighbors. Now I'm 15 for all things that I have.
