One day, when I arrived at school, an ice cream truck was parked in the schoolyard. I had never thought one ice cream truck would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was quite surprised to hear the man call out, "Free ice cream!" To make sure of his words, I asked, "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "Free ice cream. Choose whichever you like." he said with a smile.
After I was sure that the man was just giving away the ice cream, He told me that his dream had always been to travel around giving away ice cream, and that's what he was now doing. With his mother's support, he kept doing what he loved even during hard times.
The man said he wanted to encourage people to do exactly what their hearts told them to do with their lives. I kept asking him, " So your dream was just to drive and give away ice cream? "Yes, meeting people and making them smile were just my dreams," he replied. At that time he handed me an ice cream. I thanked him, but what I got from him was much more than just an ice cream. I believe what he was doing is exactly what great people do all the time : small acts of big love.
