It was a cold evening and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. I didn't notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box, But Nora did. She wasn't even four, but she _41_ at my coat and said,“That man is cold, Daddy, can we take him home?"
I don't remember my reply. But I do remember a sudden _42_ feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her world whether it was _43_ in fight or children playing. But now she was noticing _44_and beggary.
A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and _45_ it to an elderly person, It was quick and easy.I_ 46_ us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how _47_ our job was.
When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to _48_ myself to leave the house to fetch the food package. On my way to the school, I fought an urge to_ 49_ . The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home. Why do this? _50_, we phoned the elderly person we'd been assigned. She invited us right over.
The building was in a bad state. Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked us to come in. Nora ran inside. I unwillingly followed. _51_ inside, I saw that the department belonged to someone poor. Our hostess showed us some photos. Nora played and when it came time to say goodbye, we three hugged. I walked home in tears.
Professionals call such a(n) _52_ “a volunteer opportunity". They are opportunities, I've come to see. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something. _53_ that's good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and _54_ clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I've watched her grow over these past four years, I still wonder-which of us has _55_more?
