It was a cold evening and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway．I didn’t notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box．But Nora did．She wasn’t even four, but she  36  at my coat and said, “That man’s cold, Daddy, can we take him home?”
I don’t remember my reply．But I do remember a sudden   37  feeling inside me．I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing．But now she was noticing  38  and beggary．
A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and  39  it to an elderly person．It was quick and easy．I signed us up．Nora was excited about it．She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how  40  our job was．When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to  41  myself to leave the house to fetch the food package．On the way to the school, I fought an urge to turn back．The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home．Why do this? Still, we phoned the elderly person we’d been appointed. She   42  us right over．
The building was in a bad state．Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress．She took the package and asked us to come in．Nora ran inside．I unwillingly followed． 43  inside, I saw that the apartment belonged to someone poor．Our hostess showed us some photos．Nora played and when it came time to say good-bye, we three hugged, I walked home in  44  ．
Professionals call such a（n）  45  a “volunteer opportunity”．They are opportunities, and I’ve come to see．Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that’s good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and  46  clothes for the homeless．Yet, as I’ve watched her grow over these past four years, I still wonder ---- which of us has  47  more?
