英语哲理美文：以怜悯之心开启人生 My dad works for a food organization that travels to rural areas to offer food, medical assistance as well as entertainment. Recently I went with him to one of their conventions. I was there simply to give people directions, hand them a 1)flyer and send them on their way. It was hot and tiring, and I wasn’t having much fun.

He raised his chin just a 8)tad when she called him “Sir.” Rolling his shoulders back, he felt her reaching out to him in that simple phrase, and his tired, wrinkled face sparkled.
