心靈驛站

一個遭遇不幸的人為了幫助其他不幸的人而努力奮斗著， 他的行為崇高而偉大。

I saw him in the shopping center. He was holding a red box. Behind him were three trees covered with little paper angels. On them there were the names of needs of little children throughout Roanoke， VA， Around the trees were wrapped（包裝）packages of all shapes（形狀）and sizes， and people were dropping off more of them as I sat and watched.

There was something else about that happy man standing there. I didn't notice it at first. He only used one hand. His other hand was cut off. It was quite unusable. I walked to him and put it some money. Then we started to talk. I asked him why he was doing this and he said he wanted to help those who needed help ...

I thanked him for what he was doing. In theshopping center， among thousands of people out for gifts for themselves or for those they love， there stands a small man who spends day and night trying to get gifts， not for himself but for others—little children，the hungry， and the homeless.
