One day, while I was walking to work, I decided to bring some flowers that I had picked from my garden that morning. On the way, I 1 a stranger and presented the bunch to him with a smile card. 2 by the sense of joy, I felt from giving flowers to another person, and may be 3 his day, I wanted to do it again.
When I got to my office, I had the 4 of anonymously(匿名) leaving flowers around the workplace. The impersonal(无人情味的) 5 of the building where I work makes me 6. It just feels a little boring sometimes, 7 it's a nice building with great light. I 8 lots of people might feel the same way, so why not put a little 9 there, and throw in an inspirational quote while I'm at it? 10, who doesn't like flowers?
So, for the past month, I've been putting flowers in a little cup on the sink in the11. Each week, I 12 the flowers and the quote. It always feels 13 for me to read quotes like Henry David Thoreau's “If one advances 14 in the direction of his dreams, he will meet with a 15 unexpected in common hours.” and Gandhi's “The fragrance (香味) always 16 on the hand that gives the rose.” If anything, I figured, it at least makes me 17 each time I visit the bathroom.
Then today, when I walked in, I 18 new flowers in the cup, and a quote that someone else had written!It said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”—Gandhi.
The little act 19 that at the end of the day, we're all just people with hearts, 20 the various roles and different hats we may wear in the workplace.
I did a little dance and I am smiling wide for the rest of the day!
