問題詳情：

I suppose I will always remember my kind grand-mother as one of those rare individuals that always put others first and self last. There was no ego(自我). No trying to make herself look better than someone else. She just always tried to do what was right and fair and it didn’t matter who was involved. Whether you were the richest person in town or the poorest, it made no difference. You were no better than anyone else. She lived in a small town where everyone knew each other, both the good and the bad.

She was a real champion for those who couldn’t speak for themselves or were mistreated or taken advantage of. She was a true servant at heart, always making sure that everyone else’s needs were met before her own. In fact, she later became Mayor of her little town. I was so proud that my grandmother became the Mayor. She managed to improve the city’s water supply and was able to have the County’s first Nursing Home built in her city. Her natural abilities to serve others were just fulfilled even more as Mayor.

I have always been a rather picky eater. As a young child, she noticed that I loved spaghetti. I would eat only spaghetti and I wouldn’t eat vegetables or anything else that was prepared. Rather than do what most adults would do as saying, “you eat what I prepared for you, or don’t eat at all,” she spoiled me and made spaghetti. In fact, every time we visited and ate with her, she prepared a special batch of spaghetti just for me. She remembered and she continued doing this up until the day she passed away. As I got older, I noticed that not only did she prepare spaghetti for me, but she prepared a special desert for someone else or a special vegetable for another. She wasn’t happy until she knew she had pleased someone else.

Suffice it to say that I learned the real meaning of “it is more blessed to give than to receive”.
