A man came home from work late, tired, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door."Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?""If you must know, I make $20 an hour.""Oh,"the little boy replied, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, "Daddy, could you lend me $10?"
The father was furious, "If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think about why you are being so selfish(自私的)!"The little boy went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so, the father calmed(平静)down, and started to think."Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn't really ask for money very often." So he went to the little boy's room.
"Sorry! Maybe I was too hard on you just now." said the man, "Here's $10." "Oh, thank you, Daddy!" he said happily. Then, the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had money, he got angry again."Why do you want more money since you already have some?" the father shouted angrily.

    While it is common for restaurant owners to connect with their customers, a restaurant owner in the U.S. is taking it to a whole new level. Tim Harries gives out free hugs(拥抱)to every customer at the end of each meal. The atmosphere(气氛)at his restaurant “Tim's Place” is so positive(积极的)that customers often call it the "World's friendliest restaurant”.

    "Tim's Hug” is in fact an item on the menu described as a "love” treat. Tim's hugs are doubly special because of everything he has achieved. The 26-year-old is probably the only Down syndrome sufferer(唐氏综合症患者)in the U.S. to own a restaurant,but he has several other things to be proud of— he's a skillful special Olympian, an excellent sailor, and all experienced fisherman. He was also chosen as Homecoming King and Student of the Year in high school! So when a man like Tim hugs you,it is sure to be a special and unforgettable experience

    When Tim expressed interest in opening a restaurant,Keith,a small businessman himself, supported him. Tim hired other people to manage the place and do the cooking, and he introduced the idea of free hugs. He realized that people want to feel at home at a restaurant. That is why he included "love” as all item on the menu. Customers can order the free hug from Tim,and even if they don't, he'll probably hug them anyway.

    The restaurant has been around since 2010,and Tim has given out over 19,000 hugs in the past five years — he keeps count using a special Hug Counter.Many customers love visiting "Tim's Place". "I've been coming here once a week." said Michelle Garth-Jones, a regular customer. "I love local restaurants, and this special one has a story that stays with you."

I have a neighbor we call "Happy". I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh (苛刻)  word to anyone or about anyone.

Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben's beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her backyard.

Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an "all-day food fest". We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn't know what was about to take place.

By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o'clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty(收成) of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!

Well, the point wasn't so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another's company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben's garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
