A Special Meal

The  story was a true one and still moved me deeply .

Thirty years ago, I got to know a poor lady named rose . She had  no kids and lived alone  .

When I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee  and food . One day she said she     was  inviting me to have lunch .

We walk from my workplace to a little restaurant  on David Street .

On the way, I began to worry ; I knew she  had no money ,but if I offered to pay for the lunch ,I was  afraid I would hurt her .There were many people in the restaurant and all of them were happy . Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window .Then she went to work in the kitchen .

After about 20 minutes ,she came out and sat with me . She just paid for one meal and we started  to  enjoy the delicious food together . She told me that the restaurant  let people work for a meal if they had no money ,or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work .

To my surprise ,she also explained  that the workers who were working there were all volunteers . I still remember the beautiful afternoon I share with Rose . Though we had a meal together only once , it was paid by Rose's work .

The weather was warm and bright , and everyone 's smile was warm and bright as wall .I 'm still thinking that life cannot be easy to us , but we can still do something for our friends and neighbors . The world will be nicer if everybody would like to share happiness with others . It will never be dark if there is a light in everyone's heart .

人生在世,谁也不易。或许我们无意一个举动就可以温暖别人,那么我们为何不这么做呢
