  My 9-year-old daughter and I were flying from our home in Charlotte, North Carolina, to spend a week with my husband in Miami, Florida. Mike had been working in Florida for five months. Kallie missed her dad terribly.

  The plane was full. I had noticed a group of Boy Scouts(童子军) at the gate and said to my daughter that if anything happened, we would be OK with all those scouts on our flight!

  Because we did not get our boarding passes(登记证) until we arrived at the gate, Kallie and I could not get seats together. That wasn’t such a big deal, except that Kallie was nervous about the trip and had counted on(指望) me reading to her the whole way.

  When the passengers in my row boarded the plane, I asked if they would change places with Kallie or me. They refused, saying they wanted to stay in their own seats.

  At the same time, a mother and her two children several rows ahead of us also met the same problem. The mother could hold her baby, but her 6-year-old son had to sit with strangers. Yet nobody offered to help her.  

  Suddenly, the scout leader stood up and said:“Madam, I think we can help you.” He then spent five minutes rearranging his group so there was space available for the family. And then the mother was much more relaxed.

  Amazingly, the man sitting next to the scout leader, turned to me and asked:“Would you and your daughter like our seats?” We changed seats and continued on our trip, very happy to be together.

  Would that man have offered us his seat if the scouts hadn’t done so for the mom and her children? I don’t know. But I do know that kindness is good, and good deeds cause more good deeds(好事)!
