A little part of me thought about going to another checkout line．This one had the shortest ，there was only one guy in it，but he was in a and there seemed to be some difficulties ．
We stepped in behind him．At first, he to be having difficulty getting his groceries onto the counter．But after a while，I realized that what he was actually doing was it into two parts．
I offered to help，but he and the checkout lady had it under ．He asked Julie if she would mind putting his basket away．Then he for his wallet which was in a bag on one side of his chair．The he was positioned and the fact he only had one usable arm this troublesome for him，so I helped there．
The checkout operator came around and gave him his and the goods he needed to have to hand．She one bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair．
I offered to get the other bigger bag and he said，“No． you could do me a favor．Take that bag along to the entrance and give it to Angela．"
Angela，it ，was collecting food for people who might go hungry! I hadn’t even her before.
This guy，in spite of the limitations，had bought more than twice as shopping as he needed—and given the bigger bag away to help people!
He didn’t let the fact that he needed help him from being a help．He may have been limited ，but his heart was more than able to overcome all that．

The story happened years ago，when my daughter was still little.
I was driving across the country with my daughter to ____ my husband. Since I intended to get to my destination before supper time, I drove ____ for a long time without a stop. Then after driving for many miles, I became tired and needed to stop for a break to get ____．
I found a rest area. It was mostly deserted, in a quiet area of the highway. I parked the car and carried my ____ into the restroom. When I came out I saw a middleaged __ _ wandering around. Feeling ____ about that, I asked the lady. What ____ me was: they were waiting for us!
The lady told me that she and her husband wanted to see us safely back into our ____. She explained that sometimes rest areas could be a ____ place for a young lady like me. She told me that she had a daughter almost my age, so they wanted to make sure that I got safely back on my way.
I was very touched by their ____. Being young, and probably naive to the potential ____ of rest areas, it had never occurred to me that there was any possibility of something going wrong. I ____ them for their kindness. My daughter and I continued our journey and ____ our destination safely.
I never got their names but years have passed and their kindness is still not ____. Sometimes angels come in makeup and just because you can't see their ____ it doesn't mean they aren't angels.
