A few months ago I was at a bus stop in town in the evening. The bus came on time and I took the window seat. The bus route was by the seashore and I was enjoying the breeze(微风)while watching the sea waves. After a fewminutes the bus made its next stop. A young boy and a girl got on. They were standing on my left. I looked at them curiously and realized that all the window seats were occupied(占据). They could sit but not together. Suddenly a different wave passed through my body and my inner mind gave me the advice to get up. I got up and offered them my seat. The young lady smiled kindly and said thanks. I occupied another seat. I don't remember whether 1 got off the bus before them or not.

Months passed by. Suddenly one day while I was standing at the same bus stop waiting some time for the bus to arrive, I heard a voice?

“Excuse me, Uncle.” I looked in the direction of the voice. It was a beautiful young lady.

Puzzled, I said, “I do not know you.”

She said, "Do you remember you gave us your window seat?"

Puzzled, I said, “Maybe, but what is so great in that?”

She said, "If you had not given your seat that day, perhaps I would have not sat with my friend. By sitting together it helped us bridge a misunderstanding(误会)that had been between us forever. Do you know we will get married next month?"

“Good! God bless both of you,” I replied.

The young lady again said thank you and went on her journey. I realized the importance of giving that day.
