An old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and 4-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands    , his eyesight was not clear, and his    unsteady（不穩(wěn)定的）. The family were    every night at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and     sight made this rather difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass,       would often spill（灑落）onto the tablecloth. “We must do something about grandfather,” said the husband.
So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, grandfather ate    in the corner while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the dinner table.       grandfather had already broken a dish or two, his food was served in a    bowl. Sometimes, when the family      grandfather, he had a tear in his eye as he ate alone.      , the only words the couple had for him were sharp    when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The 4-year-old boy watched all this      .
One evening before supper, the father      his son playing with wood scraps（小塊）on the floor. He asked the child sweetly: “What are you making?” Just as      , the boy answered: “Oh, I am making a little    for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up.” The 4-year-old boy smiled and went back to      on it.
The words    the parents so much that they were    . Then tears started to stream down their cheeks.        no word was spoken, both knew what they had to do. That evening, the husband took grandfather’s hand and      led him back to the family table.

A very wealthy man was standing thoughtfully on a bridge．Despite all his riches，he could feel none of happiness but        and emptiness in his heart．He        to commit suicide by jumping into the fast-flowing water．
When he was about to do it，an old beggar        him．“Sir，please give me some money to buy some food．I will pray for your health and long life．”
Hearing this，he        his wallet from his pocket and gave all the money inside to the beggar．“Take all of this，”he said．
“All of this?” the beggar       ．He could not believe his good luck．
“Yes，take it all．I am going to a place where I won’t need it anymore，’’said the man．He looked back at the river       ．
The beggar became suspicious of the man’s       ．Looking at the money，and holding it for a while，he        returned it and said，“No，thank you．I won’t take it! I may be a beggar but I'm not a coward(懦夫)!Bring that money with you to the river，sir!”
Hearing his response，the man was       ．The satisfaction and happiness of him        his money to the beggar disappeared immediately．He was not even able to make the beggar receive his sincere soon-to-be-useless money．
At that moment，he suddenly        the feeling that he felt just now，that good feeling and satisfaction from giving others happiness，had indeed        become his own true happiness．By this he was encouraged，and had found what would make his life worth living．
Happiness is only real when       ．

In a land far away, once upon a time there was great poverty, and only the rich could manage without great problems．It is said that one day three of those rich men and their servants were         together on a road when they came to a very poor village．
The first could not stand seeing the         , so he took all the gold and jewels from his wagons （四輪載重馬車） and shared them out among the villagers．He wished them all the best of luck, and he left．
The second rich man, seeing the worrying situation, stopped for a short time and then decided to give the        all his food and drink, since he could see that money would be of little         to them．He made sure that they each         their fair share and would have enough food to last for some time．Then, he left．
The third rich man, on seeing such poverty,        and went straight through the poverty-stricken village without stopping．The two other rich men saw all this from a distance and commented heatedly with each other on how the third rich man lacked sympathy．It was         that they themselves had been there to offer help．
However, to their great surprise,  three days later, they        the third rich man, who was coming in the         direction．He was still traveling quickly, but his wagons, instead of the gold and valuables they had been carrying, were now completely full of farming tools and bags of        ．He was rushing back to help them out of poverty．

A little part of me thought about going to another checkout line．This one had the shortest       ，there was only one guy in it，but he was in a        and there seemed to be some difficulties        ．
We stepped in behind him．At first, he        to be having difficulty getting his groceries onto the counter．But after a while，I realized that what he was actually doing was         it into two parts．
I offered to help，but he and the checkout lady had it under         ．He asked Julie if she would mind putting his        basket away．Then he         for his wallet which was in a bag on one side of his chair．The         he was positioned and the fact he only had one usable arm         this troublesome for him，so I helped there．
The checkout operator came around and gave him his        and the goods he needed to have to hand．She        one bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair．
I offered to get the other bigger bag and he said，“No．       you could do me a favor．Take that bag along to the entrance and give it to Angela．"
Angela，it        ，was collecting food for people who might         go hungry! I hadn’t even         her before.
This guy，in spite of the limitations，had bought more than twice as        shopping as he needed—and given the bigger bag away to help         people!
He didn’t let the fact that he needed help         him from being a help．He may have been limited        ，but his heart was more than able to overcome all that．

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to       his family.
First he moved to his youngest son as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug.       they separated, I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much!” His son smiled somewhat shyly and replied softly, “Me, too, Dad!”
Then the man stood up, gazed in the       of his oldest son and said, “You’re already quite the young man. I love you very much, Zach!” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.
After several       , he turned to his wife and declared, “I’ve saved the best for last!” and      to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I       remember seeing.
For an instant they       me of newlyweds(新婚夫婦), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and gathered my courage to      ask, “Wow! How long have you been married?”
“Almost twelve years.” he replied,       breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man      turned and looked at me,. “Two whole days”
Two days? I was      . By the intensity of the greeting, I had       he’d been gone for at least several weeks — if not months. I know my expression      me. Hoping to stop our conversation politely and continue with my       for my friend, I said almost immediately, “I hope my        is still that passionate after twelve years!”
The man suddenly       smiling. He looked me straight in the eye, and with power that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a        person. He told me, “Don’t    , friend …decide!” Then with wonderful smile, he and his family turned and left together.
I was still watching that special family walk just out of sight when my friend        to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without      , and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “ My future!” 

Don’t Wait Until Flowers Fade
Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (路溝) along the highway I travel daily to work.
There is one       blue flower that has always       my eye. I’ve noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours, and the afternoon sun is too warm       it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful      .
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the       window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look       in that bed alongside       wildflowers.
Everyday I drove       the flowers thinking, “I’ll stop on my way home and dig them.” “Gee, I don’t want to get my good clothes       ...” Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband       gave me a folding shovel(鐵鍬) one year to be used for that      purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was       to see that the highway department had moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, “Way to go, you       too long. You       it when you first saw them blooming this spring.”
A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor(腦瘤晚期). She is 20 years older than my husband and      , because of age and distance, we haven’t been as      as we all would have liked.
I couldn’t help but see the       between the pretty blue flowers and the     between my husband’s sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some valuable       that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and       them to my wildflower garden

For years I wanted a flower garden. I would spend hours thinking of the different things I could        that would look nice together.
But then I had five lovely children: Matthew and Marvin, the twins Alisa and Alan, and then Helen. I was too        raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight (緊的) ，as well as time. When my children were little, if they wanted something that         too much I’d have to say, “Do you see a money        outside? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”
Finally, all five got through high school and college, and started living on their own. And I started thinking again about having a        .
One spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I        the window and was surprised to see a new tree in my yard. I put my glasses on and I couldn’t believe what I was looking at. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There was as much as one hundred       on that tree. All I could think of was all the garden flowers I could        with that money! There was also a(an)       attached(附上): “ Love, Marvin.”
My other       had bought me tools, ornaments(裝飾物) and gardening books.
That was three years ago. My garden is now very      , just the way I wanted.
I’m still not sure whether money        on trees. But I know love does!

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter，rude boss，or an insensitive employee      your day?
One day I was in a taxi and we headed    __ the airport. We were driving in the       lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes，slide sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly      the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car looked around and started      at us.
My taxi driver just      and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really     . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”．
He    that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of    ，full of frustration，full of anger，and full of disappointment. As their garbage      up，they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimesthey’ll dump it on     . Don’t take it personally. Just smile，wave，wish them well，and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more   . Don’t take their garbage and      it to other people at work，at home，or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with     . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s      in your life. Roy Baumeister，a psychology researcher from Florida State University，found in his extensive research that you      bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you      them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you      it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”，you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by      go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day！Have a marvelous，garbage-free day！The seeds you plant today      the harvest you reap tomorrow.

One Friday, a businessman decided to ask his boss for a salary raise. Before going to       , he told his wife about it. All day long he felt        and uneasy. Finally, in the late afternoon, he gathered the courage to approach his employer. To his       , the boss agreed to give him a raise.
　  That evening, the        husband arrived home and was surprised to see a beautiful table set with their best china and      candles. Smelling the aroma (香味) of the wonderful meal, he        that someone from the office had called his wife and tipped her off (透露消息).
　　Finding her in the kitchen, he eagerly        the details of his good news. When they sat down to the meal, next to his plate he found a note that read: ''Congratulations, darling. I knew you'd get the       . This dinner is to show you how much I love you. ''
　　After dinner, on his way to the        to help his wife serve dessert, he noticed a second card had slipped out of his wife's pocket. Picking it up, he read: ''Don't worry about not getting the raise. You         it anyway. This dinner is to show how much I love you." 

I never knew how well Mother could keep a trust until I was going through her things after she died．I discovered something I had       forgotten, something that happened to me as a child．
One day, as I went to sleep after my sisters and I had said our prayers, I recalled the events of the day and how       I had behaved toward Mother．“I must make things right now,”I thought．
Quietly I       out of bed and picked up the pencil and paper from the dresser, and then tiptoed into the hall．The       from the living room shone dimly． I knew Mother was downstairs still doing some sewing．
I quickly       a note asking Mother to excuse me for being so       ．I didn’t want my sisters to know my       so I added a postscript, “Please don’t let anyone else see this．”
Then I       moved into my parents’bedroom and put the letter under Mother’s pillow．
The next morning when I       my bed after breakfast, I       found a return note under my pillow．Mother wrote that she loved me and       me．This became my way of       whenever I talked back or disobeyed．Mother always left a return note, but she never       our under-the-pillow messages in front of the family．Even when we were       , she never mentioned them when we sisters       our childhood．
When Mother passed away, I had to go through her personal belongings．In her desk was a bundle of notes tied with a faded ribbon．On top was a message in handwriting which read,“In the event of my death, please       these．”
I       the package and glanced at the handwriting on the bottom．To my       , I recognized my childish writing, “P．S．Please don’t let anyone else see this．Love, Edie．”I gently placed the unopened bundle in the       along with other things for the rubbish burner．“Lord,”I prayed,“Make me like       ．”
