Solution

It all started when I saw an elderly woman at the market carrying two heavy bags. She was finding it difficult to walk properly.

At that moment, I realised that she needed help. I went up to her and offered to carry the bags. She smiled and thanked me. I carried them up to her house, which was nearby.

I was extremely satisfied that I could help her. A wave of joy washed over me when I saw how relieved she felt.

This experience taught me the value of kindness and helping others. From that day on, I decided to help people whenever I can.
