     We can almost always find an opportunity for kindness. I filled my afternoon with small acts of
kindness today and  they didn't take much time or effort, but I hope they made  a small difference to the
people who received them.
     This afternoon I went out shopping. My first stop was the supermarket. I wanted to buy some bread
with chocolate for my little daughter Rita. After I got the bread, I went on to my second stop-a local
charity (慈善) bookshop. I wanted  to see if I could buy some books on unicorns for Rita.
     While I was there, I started a conversation with the shop assistant, during which she commented on
the smell of my bread. I jokingly replied she could either avoid it (if she was on a diet) or go to the
supermarket and get some. She replied she would prefer the second. "Even better. I will give you mine,"
I said. I gave my bread to her and walked straight  out. She seemed a little surprised.
     When I came out, it was raining hard. Everyone looked  quite soaked. They must have been running
in the rain. I noticed a homeless lady selling the Big Issue (a magazine  that supports homeless people)
and she looked especially cold, so I gave her all my money to buy her magazines.
     I then went back to my car. I had to pay for two hours of parking instead of one because I didn't
have the correct change, so I still had an hour left on my parking. I waited until I saw a young couple
drive in. I gave them one magazine and they were a little surprised and quite pleased.
     You see, doing acts of kindness is that easy.

C. would give the bread to someone homeless

Soon both women were 48 to the skin, and surprise had turned to something 49 , the kind of joy that brought them close to tears.

Reflecting on a little girl's generosity, Ashley says she hopes she'll one day be able to do something similar for someone else in 50 . “Kinzie could have used that money for herself, but she gave it away,” Ashley says. “She's the type of kid I'd like my son to grow up to be.”
