Long time ago, there was a seed. Because he was only a seed, 36 cared to notice him. Thus, feeling useless, the seed thought he was not important at all.
Then one day, a 37 picked him up and threw him on an open field under the sun. He was 38 , thinking, "Why would a wind do such a thing?" But 39 any pleasant answers, he was 40 with sunlight as well as 41 , sometimes light and sometimes heavy.
Time flew by and years later, he saw a 42 sitting by his side. "Thank God for this. I really need some 43 ",he heard the traveler say.
"What are you 44 ?"The seed asked. He thought the man was 45 him. Surely he had seen many people sitting by his side, 46 no one ever spoke to him like that.
"Who is this?" The man was 47
"This is me, the seed. "
"The seed?" The man looked at the big 48 "Are you kidding me? You are not a seed. You are a tree. A big tree !

A moment passed, and the traveler's words made him think a lot.
The seed, now a big tree, thought and 53 for the first time in his life. The years of suffering from the sun and the rain were useful to him at last.
"Oh! That means I'm not a(n) 54 seed anymore! Wow! I'm a big tree now. That's the 55 that I really want !"

It’s easy to see how to help others, but what about those whose needs aren’t so obvious? This story may have happened a while back, but it was a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since.
It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor. We stood behind the counter dishing out hot food to whoever came in. most of our dinners looked like they had been having hard times, their clothes old, worn and dry. In short, they looked poor!
Then, a man came in, who looked anything but poor. He was well dressed, wearing an expensive suit. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station, the more I muttered. What was this man doing? I wanted to know. Surely he wasn’t gong to take food.
Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said, “You have assumed that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical: hunger, inadequate shelter and needs are emotional? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings?” her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man, but I didn’t.
About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous source. I can’t help but wonder if it came from that man.
Now, whether I meet others, I remember my mother’s words and try to send kindness and blessings to them, regardless of how they look.
Needs aren’t always visible. But kindness always makes a difference.

It’s easy to see how to help some people, but what about those whose needs are not so clear? This story may have happened not long ago--- but it was a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since.
It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the needy. We served hot food to whoever came in. Most of our dinners looked like they had been having hard times; their clothes were worn out and dirty. Then, a man came in, who looked anything but needy. He was well dressed. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw (下巴) dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station , the more I muttered (小声抱怨). What was this man doing? Surely he wasn’t going to take food which was meant for those who were really in need!
Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said, “You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical, hunger, etc. And this gentleman doesn’t seem to have any of those problems. But what if his needs are emotional(情感的)? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings? Her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man--- but I didn’t.
About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous source. I can’t help but wonder if it came from that man.
Now, whenever I meet someone I remember my mother’s lesson and try to send kindness their way, no matter how they look. Needs aren’t always seen. But kindness always makes a difference.
