Many times I was   39  by 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 .

I wish I could thank him for   51 some of my belief in the basic   52  of others and for giving me back a little of the   53  I had lost. Because of him, I once again felt part of a golden chain of kindness that   54  us to others.

I may have fed his body that day, but he fed my   55 .
