A
When a customer came into a Mexican restaurant in Georgia with an unusual request,a selfless waiter didn't hesitate(犹豫) to help him out.
A disabled man with no hands who ordered a meal at Cincocle Mayo Mexican
Grill in Douglasville on Sunday afternoon hoped someone might be able to help him eat his lunch.
Server Alex Ruiz,22,was more than happy to help as he sat opposite from the man and helped him enjoy his meal.
The heartwarming moment was captured in a photo by one of Ruiz's workmates,Crystal Figueroa.She posted it on the restaurant's Facebook page.
“He's a great person,”Figueroa,24,whose father manages the restaurant,said. He's always so nice,and the fact that he just came out of nowhere and helped a man he doesn't even know have a meal says everything.That just shows the person that he is.
One of Figueroa's friends,Reginald Widener,also witnessed the moment and posted the photo on his Facebook page.
“This seriously hit me right in the soul,” Widener wrote.
The waiters did not get the name of the man.He had never eaten in the restaurant before,according to Figueroa.But Ruiz jumped at the chance to help.
“I just feel like people should see that there're still good people out there,” Figueroa said.“It was just a happy moment.”

The International Day of Disabled Persons,an international observance declared by the United Nations since 1992,is observed on December 3,aiming to promote an understanding of disability issues and get support for the rights of people with
disabilities.The day takes place annually and focuses on a different issue each year.In South Africa,December 3 also marks the beginning of the Disability Awareness Month.
Since the first celebration,people with disabilities have gained recognition of their rights by states across the globe and of their rightful place in society.But there is still much work ahead of us to turn those legal rights into a true revolution,in which diversity is fully accepted and lived.
The estimated one billion people living with disabilities worldwide face many obstructions of inclusion in many key aspects of society.As a result,people with disabilities can't enjoy the equal rights as normal people,which include employment,education as well as social and political participation.The right to participate in public life is essential to create stable democracies (民主国家),active citizenship and reduce inequalities in society.
In many cases,people with disabilities must be able to fulfill their role in society.It is important to focus on the ability and not on the disability of an individual.It is important to note that disability is part of the human condition,and that all of us either are or will become disabled to one degree or another during the course of our lives.
By promoting empowerment (授权),real opportunities for disabled people are created.This supports them in setting their own priorities.Empowerment involves investing in them—in jobs,health,nutrition,education,and social protection.When disabled people are empowered,they are better prepared to take advantage of opportunities,and they can more readily accept their civic responsibilities.
