​因为我们这次活动是在五月的母亲节进行的,所以很多老人都被家人接出去吃饭了。但我发现还是有一些老人在门口等他们的家人来, 我决定陪他们聊聊天。聊了一些关于他们的儿女,有的老人甚至都有grandson或者granddaughter了。还有他们家里的宠物,以及对 马上要见到自己家人的高兴。我可以感到,他们是非常想聊天的,因为或许很久没人跟他们这样聊天了。另外还有一件事,就是这些老人都早早出来等,而他们的家人却往往比预定时间晚。 很多老人都比预定时间提前二十分钟出来等,他们的家人却会晚到二三十分钟。我碰见的,就有五六位老人。在我们来这之前,可能还有更多。而据我所知,当天的 交通状况并不至于那么差。
 
这让我更了解我们这个活动的意义,老人是非常想让我们来的。而从另一方面讲,为什么那些子女让自己的母亲等那么久?是因为他们真的很忙吗?但无论如何,我们更应该认真对待这个活动了。

I was deeply touched when I read your observation about some senior ladies who were patiently waiting for their children to come. It was so nice of you, going an extra mile to reach them.
