This morning I went to a local drive-thru (免下车餐厅) to pick up breakfast for my son.
As I came near the drive-thru, I saw a young ___1___ sitting on the sidewalk with no shoes and no socks, just bare feet. A woman was offering him some food.

I had ___3___ a bag a couple weeks before ___4___ a homeless man I had seen down by the beach, but I had not seen him since I got this bag ___5___. It had a blanket, a tarp (防水布), clean shirt and socks and some snacks and baby wipes. I knew the bag I packed was ___6___ for this young man.
I got out of my car and handed him the ___7___. He was nearly in tears and told me “god bless you”. He asked ___8___ I had any money for a sweet drink. I went back to my car and took a can of coke and a few dollars. He was so happy, and the woman who was offering him food thanked me and asked my ___9___. I introduced myself as Leann and she asked to give me a big hug, saying that was the name of her daughter who is now in heaven. She told me I was an angel (天使) and James the homeless man ___10___.
I am no angel, just a person who has been unlucky before and know what it’s like. It’s always good to have pity on others.
