Passing Your Love On
Waiting for the airplane to take off, I was happy to get a seat by myself. Just then, an air hostess approached me and asked, “Would you mind 1your seat? A couple would like to sit together.” The only 2seat was next to a girl with her arms in casts(石膏绷带), a black-and-blue face, and a sad 3. “No way am I going to sit there,” I thought immediately. But a soft voice spoke, “She needs help.” Finally, I 4to move to that seat.
The girl was named Kathy. She had been in a car accident and 5was on her way for 6.
When the snack and juice arrived, it did not take me long to 7that Kathy would not be able to 8herself. I considered 9to feed her but hesitated, as it seemed too 10to offer a service to a 11. But then I realized that Kathy’s need was more 12than my discomfort. I offered to help her eat, and 13she was uncomfortable to accept, she 14as I expected. We became closer and closer in a short period of time. By the end of the five-hour trip, my heart had 15, and the time was really 16spent than if I had just sat by myself.
I was very glad I had reached 17my comfort zone to sit next to Kathy and feed her. Love 18flows beyond human borders and removes the fears that keep us 19. When we stretch to serve another, we grow to live 20a larger and more rewarding world.

A Beautiful Dress
My neighbor’s eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place. Recently her parents1her to town to live with them. Wild and uneducated, she would use2words when she was angry. Sometimes she went so far as to3on the ground, to the4of all people around. Her parents tried to5her by beating and kicking. However, she became more6. Finally they became thoroughly7with her.
One day their next-door8, a retired teacher, gave the girl a snow-white dress, which was very9. It immediately caught the girl’s10and made them shine brightly.
The girl put on the dress and became quite a11person. She no longer acted rudely or hit others. She12seldom rolled on the floor. She knew running wild was not13for her in a beautiful dress. Since then, the girl had been14, neat, and lovely.
The story set me 15a lot. Perhaps everyone has a beautiful dress 16somewhere in his or her heart. Only some people are not aware of it,17it or take no notice of it.18is a powerful force or weapon — that’s something19by many of us. It can arouse fine qualities that humans are20with but have so far hidden somewhere. It has a soul-shaking influence that is indeed unmatched.
