9.I was a student.I would work in the early mornings and late nights to pay for my studies,and I was tired-really tired-all the time.
On the day I went to that shop for the first time,I was sick with a virus and had a very high fever.I had been off work for a few days,and I had run out of food.I had been working so hard since I moved to town,and I had no friends nearby who could help.So I went to get some food.Normally,I would have gone to the supermarket,but on this occasion,I went into the Greek shop because it was closer.I picked up a few items,the looks of which revealed the fact that I lived alone.Then I handed them to the shopkeeper,who told me,"You are unwell."I nodded rather timidly.She pointed at the salami and bread I was buying and offered,"I can make you a sandwich,so you don't have to do it yourself."I nodded,rather timidly,again.So,she made the sandwich and asked me to wait a moment.She went in the back room and reappeared with a container of hot soup."It will warm you up,"she said with a sweet smile.
What really warmed me up,though,was not the soup.It was her smile that told me she cared.And it inspired me.It made me want to be as kind as the shopkeeper who had been kind to me.I had been quite shy,but,from that day on,I did not let shyness prevent me from performing random acts of kindness.I am determined to spread the joy mid I haven't felt lonely since then!
