I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier(收银员) ______ her by name and asked her how she was doing. The woman looked down, shook her hand and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my ______ son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to ______ the holidays.” Then she gave the cashier food stamps.

My heart ______. I wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to ______ her groceries or ask for her husband’s situation?____ I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. I remembered something in my purse that I thought might help her. It wasn’t a handful of cash or an ______ of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life ______.

My heart beat faster as I ______ the woman. “Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really ______ time right now. I’m so sorry, but I’d like to give you something.”

I took a small card out of my purse and ______ it to her.

When the woman read the card’s only two words, she began to cry. And through her ______, she said, “You have no idea how much this ______ to me.”

I was a little ______ by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I didn’t know what kind of ______ I might receive. All I could think to respond was, “Oh! Would it be OK to give you a ______?”

After we hugged ______, I walked back to my car — and began to cry too.

The words on the card?

“You Matter.”
