Question

Will you put others’ needs before your own? What will you get if you do? Here is an experience of mine.

It was a wet day and I had a time. I was busy and everyone I talked to was in a bad mood. What’s more，I went out without breakfast and I left my at home. So I couldn’t get lunch and was terribly hungry.

When I finshed my work，I to ask my wife to meet me at the door with some money so that I could quickly go to buy _.Then I quickly made my way home in hope of eating my meal of the day at 5：00 p.m.

As I was halfway（半路上）home，my wife told me by phone that a friend of ours was in and needed a lift（搭便车）home. My mind said，“I will get him I get the meal.”But my mouth said，“All right,I’ll give him a .”

He jumped in the car with a smile on his face and repeated how he was that I would drive him home. He told me he usually walked home from his com but pany but that day the stopped him from making that journey.

Traffic was a . A drive to him normally took 10 minutes but that day it took 30 minutes.

Now you would guess the person that I was helping is a friend of mine. But,in fact，he is a friend of a friend.

I wonder if I will ever see this person again but I feel glad I was there when he

me.
