A Good Deed Each Day
Every New Year's Day, millions of people make a resolution, but it usually falls by the wayside within a few months, weeks or even days. However, 26-year-old Luke Cameron is not one of them. The young man decided to do at least one good deed a day, for 366 days-and he has not missed yet.
Luke did his first good deed on January 1, 2020. He simply greeted a waitress when he visited a café. The next day he bought food and drinks for some homeless people. and he followed it up by giving coins to a woman, as she did not have enough to feed a parking meter.
Though most of his kind gestures have been welcomed, Luke says there have been a few awkward(尴尬的) situations. Once, as he was trying to give away a£20 bill to an old lady,her granddaughter expressed doubt about his purpose. Another time he bought a sausage roll for a homeless man, but this man happened to be a vegetarian(素食者).
Luke has carefully recorded his good deeds in an online diary. Most of them have been about helping people with small things-like taking out the garbage for an old neighbour or helping a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. However, the young man has also spent nearly £4,000 of his own money buying gifts for the children in need.
Luke's kind deeds won him a good reputation(名声) He was offered a job for which he can earn £35,000 a year. Now the young man plans to continue doing good deeds well after the first 366 are done on December 31, 2020.
