　　Every day after world remember to gather any spare change, and put it aside to give him if I saw him. A feeling of joy would come over me every time I saw him, while coming off the ramp(坡道). So did he. Sometimes the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day. His answer would always be the same, “I’m blessed!”
　　Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off(解雇). For the rest of that day all I could think of was “how am I going to provide for my kids as a mother, how am I going to pay rent?”
　　It is clear that on my way home that day I was very sad and upset. I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready lisually did. Yet there he was as always, as I turned the ramp.
