One afternoon, as I was driving back home, I stopped at a busy crossing as the traffic light turned red.
Suddenly, an old woman appeared and started asking for money. The old woman was standing very close to my car. As shebegged, I closely watched her face. There were lots of wrinkles (皱纹) on her face. Her eyes showed lots of sadness and her body was shaking. I guessed there was no one to look after her so that she had to beg on the streets.
After seeing this, I felt pity for her. I usually gave change to beggars. However, that day I gave her a lot so that she could have a good meal that evening.
Without any hesitation (犹豫), I took out a large amount of money from my wallet and placed it in her hand. The old woman raised her face with a toothless smile, blessed (祝福) me and then went on her way. At the same time, the traffic light turned green, and it was time to move on.
As I drove back home, I was in great joy because I was able to do something for at least one person. Her blessings will be one of the most valuable memories in my life.
