The Sandwich on the Bench
Ella sat on a park bench during her lunch break watching people rush by. As she opened her sandwich, she noticed a boy sitting on the next bench staring at her food. His clothes were worn, and his cheeks were sunken.
Without a word, Ella split her sandwich in half and handed it to him. The boy looked surprised, then smiled the kind of smile that lights up more than a face.
Thank you
That half sandwich didn't cost Ella much, but it fed a hungry soul and warmed her heart for days.
