I was on a bus one March evening. The driver didn’t intend to start the bus soon because it was not yet full. A middle-aged woman got on. Tired and sad, she told her story tearfully, not to anyone in particular. On her way to the station, half of her money was stolen. The other half was hidden under her blouse, so she fortunately still had some left. A few minutes later, she stopped crying, but still looked unhappy.
When all the seats were taken, the driver started the engine. The conductor began to collect fares(车费). When she came to an old man in worn-out clothes, he explained that he had spent all his money when he had accidentally got on a wrong bus and now he was trying to go home. On hearing this, she ordered the old man to get off the bus. The old man was almost in tears as he begged her to let him take the bus home. The driver took the conductor’s side and repeated the conductor’s command.
The woman was watching the incident. When the driver and the conductor raised their voices at the old man, she interfered(干预).
“Stop bothering him! Can’t you see he’s only trying to get home?”
“He doesn’t have any money! ” the driver shouted.
“Well, that’s no reason to throw him off the bus,” she insisted.
Then she reached inside her blouse, look out her remaining money, and handed it to the conductor. “Here’s his fare and mine. Just stop giving him a hard time.”
All heads turned to the woman. “It’s only money,” she shrugged.
She rode the rest of the way home wearing a happy smile, with the money she’d lost earlier forgotten .
On the road of life, the help of strangers can lighten our loads and lift our spirits. How much sweeter the journey will be when we make it a little smoother for others!
