A gift in a wrong place brings unexpected happiness.
Since I came to my new neighbourhood,I have had the pleasure of meeting a few neighbours.They seem to be quite people. For Christmas,I thought I would do something nice for each of the neighbours that I know.I sat down and .There were nine neighbours,and I also knew which houses they lived in.
However,I decided to one more person to my list,the lady I met every morning walking to work as I drove down the street. She always managed a sweet smile and a hearty wave(挥手), I had no idea which house she lived in.
My gift idea was to make small baskets and leave them on each of my neighbour’s front porches(门廊)the night of Chrismas Eve.I kept the last one for the friendly lady,since I was still not exactly sure where she lived— the house down about where I met her each morning. Finally I decided to put it there. My neighbours really enjoyed the baskets and a couple even came by to me.
This morning on my way to work,I placed my mail in the mailbox and noticed a Thank You card.I opened it and read the which really caught me by surprise.
The card said,“Thank you for those lovely apples and strawberries you left on the porch of Tod. He on January 19,but he never stopped talking about how nice it was that someone him in his time of illness. He really enjoyed it.”
I was very . I had no idea who Tod was or that he had been seriously .I had left that nice lady’s basket on Tod’s porch by accident.I believe that Tod never expected to have that basket. I feel that the nice lady did not get a basket from me this Christmas,but I believe that if she knew what had happened,she would me.
I feel lucky to have helped Tod be more cheerful in his last days.This just makes me further believe that sometimes in life are beautiful.
