As Christmas drew near, Ursula was faced with just that problem. She had come to live in an American home and learn English. 50 , she would mind the children and do anything she was asked.
One of her tasks was to keep track of 51 Christmas presents. Ursula did this faithfully, but she became increasingly worried. What could she buy for her 52 with the little money she had that would compare with the gifts she was recording daily? 53 ,even without any of the gifts , her employer seems to have everything.
Ursula _ 54 _ long and hard. On Christmas Eve, she went to a store. She moved slowly through crowds of shoppers, 55 things in her mind. Finally she bought a baby dress. She immediately called 56 . “Excuse me, please, can you help me find a poor family with a baby?” “A poor family?” said the 57 driver. “Yes, a very poor family.” Ursula told the man of what she was trying to do. He 58 in silence, and then said, “I know a family who 59 just about everything.”

When they reached a 60 the driver said, “They live on the third floor.” Ursula shook her head, “Would you take this dress to them and tell them it’s from someone …someone who has everything.”
Early the next day, Ursula 61 everyone for the presents she received. Then, she began to62 why there seemed to be none from her. She told about what she did the night before. When she finished, there was a long 63 . “You see,” she added, “I try to do a kindness in your64 . And this is my Christmas present to you.”Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. However, I was not thinking about the golden chain when I had to help people who 36their way and parked in front of my house.
I was growing tired of helping so many people. Almost every 37I was awaken during a sound night’s sleep and had to 38someone out. Many times I was 39by some penniless motorists who did not even thank me for the helps that they received and some even complained that I could have done 40.
One day, a young man with a week – old beard climbed out of a 41automobile. He had no money and no food. He asked if I could give him some 42, offer him gasoline and a meal. I told him that if he wanted to work for me, he could cut the grass, but 43the work wasn’t necessary.
Though sweaty and hungry, he worked hard. After working all day, he sat 44to cool himself. I thanked him for his work and gave him the money he 45. I then offered him some 46money for a task particularly well done, but he shook his head, 47.
I never saw him again. He probably thinks I helped him out that day, but that is not 48it was. I didn’t help him. He helped me to 49people again to repay their trust in me. He helped me to once again want to do something for those who are 50. I wish I could thank him for 51some of my belief in the basic 52of others and for giving me back a little of the 53I had lost. Because of him, I once again felt part of a golden chain of kindness that 54us to others.
I may have fed his body that day, but he fed my 55.
