As I stood in the return line and watched people,I became extremely impatient.My daughter

had got four Barbie dolls and two identical Cabbage Patch Kids on Christmas,so I was eager to return toys that she didn’t need.Suddenly a strong idea came to me.I eyed the lady in front of me with three small girls on her leg.The family looked poor.The children were without coats,and they had dirty faces and hair.“You are ready to get out of here,aren’t you? Give her the things you want to return,” the still voice spoke.“Give them to her? These are mine.I’m not giving her my stuff,” I argued.I swallowed the urge that threatened to escape my lips when the voice spoke again.“Give her the toys.” I was familiar with the voice .I know I couldn’t argue with that voice.

I sighed and tapped the lady on the shoulder.“Ma’am,” I cleared my throat.She looked at me

with kind,tired eyes surrounded by wrinkles.“Yes?” she asked.“Would your little girls like to have these toys?” I pointed to my basket full of returns.“Would your children like to have them?” She was speechless,and I swore that tears were about to well up in her eyes.“You’d be doing me a favor.I can’t stand in this line in a moment longer.” “You have no idea,” she shook her head.“You have no idea what that means to me.”

I started loading her basket as the excited girls watched.“Merry Christmas,” I said,“God bless

you.” She replied as I nodded and exited the line.I didn’t want to go the Walmart that day,but I went.I didn’t want to give the lady my kid’s toys,but I did.Sometimes doing what we don’t want to do is exactly what we’re supposed to do.

We ate on the go more than ever before.Here are three health apps that can help you better manage your health when you pursue your dreams.

3.RISE

RISE,an app available on iPhone(coming to Android in 2016),pairs you up with (与……绑定) a registered dietitian to improve your diet and reach health goals.You share photos of your meals and your exercise for the day with your coach,who then looks for areas where you can improve and gives advice,helps you set goals and is there to pat you on the back virtually（虚拟地）when you hit a milestone.What’s also great is that you can text as much as you want with your dietitian and there is no need to go into an office.Fees for this service range from $9 per month to $50 a month.There is a free 7-day trial so you can try it out for a week to see if it’s fit for you.

Cleaning your plate may not help feed hungry children today,but the timeworn advice of mothers everywhere may help reduce food waste from the farm to the fork,help the environment and make it easier to feed the world’s growing population.

Hard data still being collected,but experts in Chicago said about 30% to 50% of the food produced in the world goes uneaten.The average American throws away 33 pounds of food each month-about $40 worth,which means each person throws away almost 400 pounds of food.The US Department of Agriculture says that 23% of eggs and an even higher percentage of produce ends up in the trash.

“We forget we have all these fresh fruits and vegetables,and at the end of the week we have to throw them away”,said Esther Gove,a mother of three young children in South Berwick,Maine.“Now,I don’t buy as much fresh produce as I used to.”

But the effect of food waste arrives far beyond the kitchen.Agriculture is the world’s largest user of water,a big consumer of energy and major emitter of greenhouse gases during production.Experts say reducing waste is a simple way to cut stress on the environment and can ease pressure on farmers,who will be called on to feed an expected 9 billion people around the world in 2050,compared with nearly 7 billion today.

No matter how sustainable (可持续的) farming is,if the food’s not getting eaten,it’s not sustainable and it’s not a good use of our resources.In richer nations,fruit and vegetables end up
