One morning I noticed a woman sitting alone at the bus stop.She seemed not to go to work hurriedly.She wasn't going anywhere as well.Was she waiting for the bus?Did mall buses come this early when the stores
wouldn't be open for hours?As I drove by,I heard a voice say, "Give her a bottle of water."
"She looks like she is sleeping.Why would I wake her?" "What is wrong with me?What is so hard about doing the right thing?It's just a bottle of water!"
So I drove by her again and again.As she repositioned herself,so did I.
I pulled my car into the no-parking bus zone,stepping out with a bottle of water in one hand and a twenty-dollar bill in the other.Each step seemed to fill me with purpose and focus.No words can describe what happened between us in that moment.I thought I was bringing her a cold drink,but instead I was bringing her a hope she needed.We sat together for a while as she talked.She had a sad story to tell,but she was no longer sad.Before we parted,I grabbed all the cash I had in my purse and found more water in my car along with some snacks.We stood at the bus stop hugging and said our goodbyes.
I still have a thousand questions as to why I struggled to act.Why did it take me three circles around the mall and a full-blown argument with myself?I once wavered between helping her and ignoring her,All I know for sure is that while walking toward that woman at the bus stop,a miracle happened.
There are opportunities for us to love every day.Maybe our doubts keep us from acting.Maybe we don't want to take the risk or be uncomfortable.
That day,I learned how love answers when asked and how love both gives and receives.

2.I remember my math teacher Mr.Young very well.He stood out because the kids made fun of him.He was missing one of his fingers,and always pointed at students with his middle finger.
I was not very good at English and math.No matter how hard I tried,I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.
One day,I was told that if I got one more E on my report card,I would be taken to the "big prison for kids".
I tried really hard for weeks.I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.
The day before report cards were to come out,I knew that Mr.Young would give me an E,just like he always did.
I went to Mr.Young and told him that the orphanage (孤兒院) was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card.He told me there was nothing he could do;it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
I smiled at him and said, "Mr.Young,do you know how the kids make fun of you because you're missing your finger?" He looked at me,moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.
"They shouldn't do that to you because you can't help not having a finger,Mr.Young.Just like I can't help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that." I said.
The next day,when I got my report card,I tucked it into one of my books.While on the school bus,I opened it:Geography,B+;Mechanical Drawing,C-;English,D-;History,C-;Gym,B+;Art,C;Math,D-.
That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received.Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.
