As I was driving out of the store parking lot, they crossed in front of me.My first reaction was filled with
36 at being delayed for a whole ten seconds.But I quickly became
37 when I realized that it was an elderly
38 .
The man leaned on his
39 who walked in front of him.He not only used her for
40 but it was obvious that he was blind.The two of them
_
41 as one—each needing the other to
42 in this fast-changing world.
That little example of true strength
43 my whole personal perception(理解) of life that day.Suddenly I wasn’t so
44 having to work a few extra hours on Saturdays.I had my
45 ,and I was still
46 young.
That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity(尊严) and strength
47 me the entire week.My
48 wasn’t so bad after all.I had my health and a good job.I had a wonderful,
49 wife.I started to think—not only was I
50 to have these all, but so was that wonderful old couple,who,
_
51 the trials and sufferings of a long life,still had the love and support of each other to
52 them through this world.
There are so many people out there just like that couple.My wife and I sometimes
53 ourselves in our old age, walking arm in arm into the sunset. That image always gives us a
54 feeling.Just remember, none of us would be here if it wasn’t for our elders.We all should spend a little extra time and patience,
55 helping our elder friends.
