I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car. Coming my way from across the parking lot was society would consider a bum(无业游民). From the
of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no money. He sat down in front of the bus stop but didn't look like he could have enough money to even
the bus. “That's a very pretty car,” he said. He was
but he had a(n)
of dignity around him. I said, “thanks,” and
wiping off my car. He sat there
as I worked. The
beg for money never came. As the silence between us widened something inside said, “ask him if he needs any help.” I was
that he would say “yes”. “Do you need any help?” I asked. He answered in three
but profound(深远的) words that I shall never
. “Don't we all?” he said.
I had been feeling high, successful and important those three words
me like a shotgun. Don't we all? I needed help. Maybe not for bus fare or a place to sleep, but I needed help. I
my wallet and gave him not only enough for bus fare, but enough to get a warm meal and
for the day. Those three little words still ring
. No matter how much you have, no matter how much you have
, you need help too. No matter how
you have, no matter how
you are with problems, even without money or a place to sleep, you can
help.
