Although it was only autumn, everything outside was colored white. Unexpectedly (出乎意料地), we were hit by a big snow storm and no one was prepared.          

We have two apple trees in our backyard. Prana, our dog, loves apples. When she goes outside, she usually digs out a dirty apple from the ground and then quickly eats it.

On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Prana went outside and I watched her from the window. I noticed that she was digging lots of holes and then bringing out the apples buried under the snow. She seemed to be glad to dig out as many apples as she could.                                      

But when she came back inside, she brought back only one. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The yard was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for her bird friends to eat. She knew that they hadn’t prepared enough food for the early terrible “winter” .     

This beautiful act of unselfish (无私的) love from an animal taught me what real kindness was.
