I often go to the park near my home. I always see a little boy there. He wears an old T-shirt and black trousers. In front of him is a basket of flowers. He sells flowers from early morning to late at night every day.

Some other boys also sell flowers in front of the park. But no one is like this boy. He asks everyone to buy his flowers. When he sees me, he always follows me and says, “Please buy a flower. Please!” “Sorry, I don’t like flowers!” I answer. I never buy any flowers from him.

One day, I go to the park. The boy is there again. He sits at the same place. I don’t want him to follow me, so I don’t look at him. I walk past him into the park.

When I come out of the park, the boy is still there. He doesn’t ask anyone to buy his flowers and just sits there. I want to know why. I walk up to the boy. He looks at me but doesn’t say anything. I ask him, “Boy, why don’t you ask people to buy your flowers today?” He answers, “ Because I don’t need any money now. My sister is dead. You can take a flower for free.”

I buy all his flowers. But I feel so sorry, because I don’t give him help in time.

When my son. Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list (清单)and had twenty dollars in his pocket.

I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched lit the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his parents. Finally he came to the checkout counter(交款处)and reached into his pocket for his money. There was a hole (洞)in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.

Then a woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, I know you will feel as good about it as I do now."

Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us. I would like to say "Thank you" to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting clothes for the homeless (无家可归的)people in the fire. And I am sure that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on
