Especially in June, people go to this place because they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year.

On midsummer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones can prevent illness while keeping people healthy. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for. But most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose.

I have a lovely daughter，whose name was Eloise. She is only nine years old. I picked her up from school and went to the supermarket for a few things. I was hoping to be in and out quickly.

I found a short line with just one person ahead of me. It was an elderly woman，and she was paying for her things with only change. It took a long time. After a whole day at work，I began to lose patience.

But then I watched the young clerk（职员）. He helped her count her change，ever so tenderly（体贴地）taking it from her shaking hands. I listened to him repeatedly say to her，“Yes，madam. "When she asked the clerk if she had enough money to buy a bag，he told her she did. Then he went two lines over to get one for her. Never once did this clerk get annoyed（生气的）or roll（滚动）his eyes. He was patient and kind.

As I was watching him，I saw Eloise was，too. I realized that my daughter was learning an important lesson from a complete stranger.

After the woman was finished，the clerk began ringing up my things and thanked me for my patience. I thanked him，too. I found the manager and told him about the clerk's kindness and patience.

Then we left the supermarket with a full cart（手推车），but also with a heart full of thankfulness for such an important lesson. Sometimes just one act of kindness is all it takes to encourage others to do the same. Being kind to others can also make you feel good.
