Years ago, I celebrated my 40 thbirthday with friends in a(1) restaurant. Many arrived earlier and waited outside the restaurant, As I was on the roadside, a homeless man came near to me and(2) money. I let him know I didn't have any cash (现金)with me. With a quiet smile on his face, he moved on.
Just then a friend arrived and called out, "Happy Birthday! "Hearing this, the man turned and asked,"Hey, man, it's your birthday?""Yes, "I said. He walked (3) , smiled and said, "Happy Birthday!"I was not(4) ready for what happened next. He took out a dollar from his dirty bag, and gave it to me, saying, "Here man, take this. Happy Birthday! "That's(5) . I expected he was making a joke!
Although I(6) deeply by his generosity (慷慨), accepting money from a homeless man was embarrassing for me. I felt very uncomfortable.(7) I replied, "Thanks, but…"Looking directly into my eyes, he said, "God,s so good to me Every night, I always end up with a place to sleep and enough food to eat. Please take this. "I held out my hand﹣(8) thinking twice.saying," thank you"
This was one of my(9) life lessons﹣ however poor we may feel, we always have something valuable to share with others. From then on I often helped people in need and treated everyone with kindness and (10) , spreading love and joy everywhere I went.
