A Bag of Kindness “Class, tomorrow I want you to bring a cup of macaroni（通心粉) for our craft class, OK? These words from my teacher echoed（回响） in my mind all evening. I was afraid of the next day because I knew we had no macaroni at home. Living in an alcoholic(多酒精的) environment, we never had too much of anything except beer bottles. I went home after school. Where could I find macaroni? I knew that the local bottle shop gave ten cents for a beer bottle, so I decided to sell some bottles to get money for macaroni. I started collecting the bottles and put them in my wagon（大车）. After selling those bottles, I earned eighty cents. Although I did my best, I still had no macaroni for my craft class. Weren’t you listening when I asked you to bring it, John? my teacher asked. I was embarrassed（尴尬）. I didn’t know what to say and other children started laughing. Then a little girl, Rosalyn, who sat beside me, turned to me and said, You can have some of mine.” She offered a bag of macaroni to me. The kindness in her eyes made me start to cry and I ran out of the room in shame. I never took her macaroni or thanked her for her bag of kindness. However, I often think about Rosalyn and the way she turned to save me that day. Once, I spent a great deal of my life letting anger, hurt and shutting-out be around me. I kept kind people like Rosalyn away, but after that class, I changed my attitude. I thanked all the people like Rosalyn that made this world a better place to live in. 65.
