13.I wanted to buy something that I needed,Last week I went to a different grocery store than earlier usual,just to check it out.The person in front of me at the checkout was using a WIC card to check out and it kept telling her that it wasn't working.A manager came over and told her to come to a different register,maybe this one was the problem.After I checked out,I noticed she was still there,trying to get her card to work.
It was obvious that the young woman was getting anxious about the purchase so I offered to pay for her purchase.She was shocked.She thanked me and I went on my way with a smile from her.
Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes and you never know when it will be your turn.Today I found that it was indeed my turn.
I went boating north of the city.It was a very hot,sunny day so I brought a large container of sports drink,thinking it would be plenty to drink.I didn't have a clear expectation of the drain(消耗) which the heat would have on me.Before I got back to shore,I realized that I had finished the bottle.I still had to get back,load the boat on the car,and it would be at least a 10-minute drive to somewhere to buy more to drink.When I got back to shore and managed to dray my boat to the car and get it tied,I was very hot and thirsty.So,I swallowed my pride and asked a family picnicking nearby if they had an extra bottle of water,which they gladly gave me.That bottle of water wasn't a big deal to them,but it meant a great deal to me.
The little things that can be done for others don't usually seem important to the people doing them,but it can be huge to the receivers.Thank you to all the joyful givers who don't think twice about helping others.
