Helping others makes us feel meaningful and shows that we can be very helpful. I have a wonderful experience of helping others.

Two months ago, I took a bus to school. When I got on the bus, I found an empty seat. This was the only seat, so I galloped toward it to sit down because I was really tired. Although I was very tired, I did not sleep on the bus because I might forget to get off. I was playing on my mobile phone.

After four bus stations, a lady carrying her baby was looking for an empty seat. However, there were no empty seats at that time. I thought she must be very tired from carrying her baby, so I said, “There is no empty seat now. If you don’t mind, you can sit here.” Then she said, “Really! Thank you for offering your seat to me.” After that, she gave me some chocolate and said, “Thank you for your help. This is a treat you can have because you are so helpful.” I said excitedly, “Thank you for the chocolate. Your baby is so cute. May I hold her?” She answered, “Sure you can.” Then we chatted with each other happily. When I needed to leave the bus, I said, “I need to leave now, bye.” She also said, “Bye,” to me.

On that day, I felt it was meaningful to help others. I learned that if you are nice to others, they will be nice to you too.

It was a wonderful experience to help others.
