I used to live selfishly, I should admit.But one moment changed me.
I was on my lunch break and had 1 the office to get something to eat.On the way, I 2 a busker(街头艺人),with a hat in front of him.I had some 3 in my pocket, but I would not give them to him, thinking to myself he would 4 use the money to feed his addiction to drugs or alcohol. He 5 like that type-young and ragged. 6 what was I going to spend the money on ? Only to feed my addiction to Coca-Cola or chocolate! I then 7 I had no right to place myself above 8 just because he was busking.
I 9 and dropped all the coins into his 10 , and he smiled at me, I watched for a while.As 11 as it sounds, I expected something more to come from that moment -- a feeling of 12 or satisfaction, for example.But nothing happened 13 , I walked off.“It proved to be a waste of 14 ,”I thought.
On my way home at the end of the 15 , I saw the busker again and he was 16 .I watched him pick up the hat and walk 17 a cafe counter.There he poured the 18 contents into a tin collecting 19 an earthquake fund-raising(募捐)event.He was busking for charity(慈善)!
Now I donate any 20 I have to charity tins and enjoy the feeling of giving.
