The Unexpected Kindness Of A Stranger

Yesterday, as I approached the front door of our public library, a white-haired gentleman stepped back to hold the door for me. You see, I have to go everywhere these days with a walker, and folks are 1.__________ (constant) holding or opening doors for me, so this was not unusual.

However, I told the gentleman that the door had 2._______ automatic opener, and he did not need to stay to hold it open. He said “Here I thought I would have an opportunity to be 3._________ (help).”

At that, I backed up, let the door close, and allowed him to reopen the door, not 4._________ (use) the automatic control this time. His comment then was “Well, now I feel like that I 5._________ (accomplish) something helpful and worthwhile today.”

We never know 6._________ someone else is feeling. We seniors seem to feel we can take care of 7.________ at all times. That random act of kindness brightened not only my day, but 8.________ my joy and delight, also the day of that white-haired senior citizen. I felt a glow for the rest of the day, and, hopefully, so did he!

So, gentle readers, never hesitate 9.________ (offer) kindness. You may find to your 10.________ (amaze) that there is more kindness in your community than you ever believe possible.
