My single mother used to take on several jobs just in order to make ends meet. When I was fifteen years old, she started her own business, and things began to get easier financially. There was no longer a question as to whether she would be able to afford groceries for the week.

The following spring, when I was sixteen years old, a new family moved into our neighborhood. The wife, Melissa, quickly made friends with my mother, and the children, though younger than me, became my pals soon. They lived within walking distance of my house, and in summer vacation, I would walk over to their house to watch Disney movies while my mother was at work.

One afternoon, I was at their house during lunchtime, and they were generous enough to include me in the meal. Their daughter, ten at the time, requested a glass of milk with her food. Melissa stated, "We are out of milk, and we don't have any more money for groceries this week." She suddenly realized that I was present and explained with a defeated look, "Money has been really tight."

The family had recently moved here from California because Melissa had been offered a good job. However, the position had not worked out, and her husband had to take the first job he could find. They had uprooted their children and moved across the country, leaving behind their relatives and friends, only to end up in trouble. I thought about our own circumstances just a year earlier.

Later, I came home with a heavy heart as I reflected on their hardship. I told my mother about the rough time Melissa was experiencing. "Do you think we could help them?" I asked. In response, she immediately opened the cupboard doors and started pulling out food. We searched each cabinet, grabbing bag after bag, can after can. Then we ended in front of the shelf where my mother's precious homemade goods were stored. We found a sizable box and packed it with a lot of groceries.
