As I turned off the main road the other day, I noticed something unusual in the parking place.
There's a wide grassy land in front of the ________ where people often put up signs announcing their yard sales or events. That was what was happening this day, but the thing I ________ was worthy of a surprised look. A man in a suit was hammering(锤击)a ________ into the ground and a homeless man was ________ the sign when he hammered.
I was ________ by how the two looked so exactly ________, one with a soldier suit, snowy white shirt and matched tie, but the other with ________, mismatched clothing and messy hair waving ________ in the wind. And then the ________ humanity(人性)of the moment hit me. So many times we ________ homeless people and all we see is homeless people, almost as if we don't even notice them. But on this day, I saw the ________ of a man who walked over to help someone. The moment really ________ me, and it was a fresh reminder to look beyond the ________ and see the person instead.
A friend and I had an opportunity a few years ago to write the study guide to a book. It's an amazing book. The dedication(题词)was ______ on the first page and it said, "To Titus, who taught me to cheer for humanity."
Wow, what if more of us did that? Can you imagine the difference it would make in our world? In one of the chapters, the book tells about sitting in large crowds at places, like shops and airports, and cheering for humanity. It does change things. Just imagine an old lady down the street becomes a wounded soul who just needs ________ and a homeless person on the street becomes a real person who needs concerns and a hand. You really can help them.
