After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter.

Dear son, _36502119

I want to thank you for teaching me a very   1lesson in life by the great example you   2. When we were eating at that café in Bondi and a person who had   3his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it, without any   4, you went over and put the   5$2 into his hand.

When we were leaving, you   6threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said   7like, “Some kid will really enjoy   8this.”

Last week, a young man   9me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have   10money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, “How much   11is he?” She told me he had meant to put $15 of

petrol in his car   12he had been looking at the wrong gauge（计量表）and had put in 15   13, which came to just over   14. That is an easy mistake   15both gauges run fast.

Something made me think of you and   16you did that night at the café in Bondi. I handed the man $6. He was so   17and said, “But why would you do this for me?” I just smiled as I thought of you.

Thank you, son, for teaching me that “it’s   18to give than receive”. Now when I see a five-cent coin on the   19and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it   20, just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it.

Little Chad was a shy,   21   young man. One day he came home and told his mother that he’d like to make a Valentine for everyone in his class. Her heart sank.

For three weeks, night after night, Chad painstakingly made 35 valentines.

Valentine’s Day   28  , and Chad was   29   himself with excitement. He carefully put them in a bag and walked out of the door. His mother decided to bake him his favorite cookies and   30   them nice and warm with a cool glass of milk when he came home. She just knew he would be   31   and maybe that would ease(减轻) the pain a little. It hurt her to think that he wouldn’t get many valentines-maybe   32  at all.

That afternoon she had the cookies and milk on the table. When she heard the children outside, she looked out of the window. Sure enough,   33  they came, laughing and having the   34   time.

His arms were   38  , she noticed, and when the door opened she choked back the tears.

“Mommy has some cookies and milk for you,” she said.

But he hardly heard her words, he just   39   right on by, his face aglow(满面红光), and all he could say was, “Not a one. Not a one.”

Her heart sank.

And then he added, “I didn’t forget a one, not a   40   one!”
