Last Monday, he was driving on the road with his son and his friend. Suddenly, he saw a car hit another truck and caught fire. The accident was just in front of his truck.

【推荐3】Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then decided to take the best photo of this panorama.
Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman appeared from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would finally take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the scenery? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed to be lost in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that.
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her appearing in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The beautiful scenery on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.
This photo, with the special beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured(捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized(使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.
Perhaps we all live in each other’s space. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.
That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.

“This is what her life was about, giving to others,” Alex said. She recently reached a goal that helped her family and hundreds of people who’ve received their special gifts.

“Thank you, you guys are too sweet!” the server said, holding back tears.
But these good deeds aren’t as random (随机的) as you might think. They’re part of an important list. “Sixty-one different acts of kindness,” said Sarah McKelvey, Alex’s mom.
