Recently, I experienced a wonderful lesson that little things still mean a lot. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii. About a month ago, when I started my car and I 1down at the roadside, a piece of paper caught my eye. I picked it up and 2it carefully.
The form turned out to be a 3from the State Motor Vehicle Division, documenting the owners’ 4of their vehicle’s registration fees. Quickly, I put myself in their 5and figured:no one would throw this out, 6if it was current.
Although the form had been blown here, where in the busy, 7parking lot would I find the owner? So I checked the date and noted the name of the 8, who must be in our town. I thought that the best and easiest step to 9was to put the form in an envelope addressed to the couple and 10it by post. So I did it.
On the weekend, a 11couple called at my house and brought me a big 12 . They said they had panicked and searched for the receipt(收据) 13everywhere before giving up. Without it they would 14 $8, 000. It felt great to know I’d helped someone 15a major trouble by doing something which at first glance seemed minor.
