I offered to feed her, and although she too was uncomfortable about __11__ it,she did. The experience was pleasant, and she and I __12__close in a short period of time. __13___ the end of the five-hour trip, my heart was fully __14__,and the time was __15__ better spent than if I had just sat by myself.

When we stretch to serve another, we grow to live in a larger, more __18__ world. Help me move __19__ the small self so I can connect with the hearts of others. When I give love to another, I __20__ my own soul.
