It was 3:43. Thunder was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed into my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up! We’re flooding!” he shouted and shook me by the shoulders. That woke up! I ran downstairs to the basement. It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to pick up things and take them upstairs. I had no on, so my feet were quite freezing.
Things got worse every minute. Within the next hour, we had moved everything that we could to the first floor. The computer, big-screen television and heavy boxes with our most valuable things were taken to safety. , our piano, sofa, washing machine and water heater were all still down there—being . There was nothing we could do.
That was the hardest part. Knowing that your home is being destroyed is bad enough, but that you can’t do anything to stop it feels even worse.
Water had come in our front door. Rescue were floating in our streets. Mother told me to pack an overnight bag of clothes and valuables and get ready to leave.
When it was safe to walk outside, all the people in the neighborhood at the street corner. People became friends, and friends became like family. People each other. We learned later that the National Weather Service had declared the storm a flash flood.

科I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was sociology(社会学). The teacher was really great. The class was asked to go out and smile at three people.
I am a very person and thought this would be a piece of cake. Soon after, my husband, youngest son and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line, waiting to be , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to away, and then even my husband did.
As I turned around I smelled a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor men. As I looked down at the short gentleman, he was “ ”. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he searched for acceptance. He said, “Good day.” as he counted the few he had been holding.
The young lady at the counter(柜台) asked him what they . He said, “Coffee is all Miss.” because that was all they could afford. He just needed to be warm.
Then I really it—the compulsion(冲动) was so great that I almost out and hugged the little man with the blue eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give two more breakfast meals on two plates.
I then picked up the plates and walked around the counter to the that the men had chosen as a resting place. I put the plates on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman’s hand. He looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn：acceptance without condition.
