I was running a few errands in my car the other day.The sun was out,the radio was playing,and I was 1 along.The song was a joyful one and even my weak voice
sounded good singing it.Then it happened, 2 .The 3 sound of the music ended and was replaced with the dreaded news break.
I drove on while the announcer droned on.Gas prices were going higher again 4 the competitive speculation(投机) on Wall Street.The 5 for the Presidency was getting nastier and nastier,rioting(暴乱) had 6 when fans of a sports team had gone wild,celebrating their team’s championship.
Finally,I could take no 7 and turned off the radio.Silence seemed preferable 8 listening to anything else about the crazy,competitive society we live in.I slowed down as I entered a local town and 9 the people as I drove by.
A tall muscular(壮硕的) man was helping an elderly lady out of a car and helping her position her walker so she 10 go into a local store.
A smiling woman was tossing birdseed into her backyard while a dozen robins flew down to enjoy the 11 being laid out before them.
A young man was walking along,carrying his two-year-old daughter 12 in his arms.He tickled her gently when she pulled the hat off his head and they 13 laughed.I laughed too as I looked at all of this 14 .It felt like a glimpse of Heaven.The radio may have been 15 in my car,but in my heart I was still singing.
In truth,this world could use a little more kindness and a lot 16
competition.Kindness makes us all winners in this life.Kindness 17 us that we are all God’s children.Kindness shows us that we don’t have to 18 others in this world.
