The night of graduation, I was afraid. Two hundred people were sitting out there. I felt tense and I wanted to run away,   1  I couldn’t! After all, my own children were sitting in front of me with many other persons. I couldn’t be a coward(懦夫) before   2 .
When I ended the speech, I was   3  at the cheering. And I never forget the first time I received the cheering in my life.
Flowers arrived   4  my brothers and sister. My husband gave me silk roses. The reporters came with   5  and recorders and lots of questions. There were tears and hugs and congratulations.
Sometimes, I sit down and   6  the tape of my graduation speech. I hear myself say to the audience, “Don’t’ give up your   7  in life. Anything can happen if you believe. It means hard work, but   8  sure that you can do it, with God’s help.”
And then, I remember mother’s   9  to me , a young girl: “Hurry, Gin, you’ll be late for school.”
Yes, Mom, I was late   10  school, but it was sweeter for waiting. I only wish you and Dad could have been there to see your daughter and granddaughter in all their show and speech.

I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance(保险业) company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job----I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma (精神创伤) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife.
Bruce, the interviewer, was politely empathetic, but he didn't probe any further. He admitted my loss and with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another person. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children.
In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had -----a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call.
Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need.

While at the park one day, a woman sat down next to a man on a bench near a playground. “That’s my son over there,” she said, pointing to (指着) a little boy in a red sweater.
“He’s a fine looking boy,” the man said. “That’s my daughter on the bike in the white dress.” Then, looking at his watch, he called to his daughter: “We have to leave for home now, Melissa.”
“Just five more minutes, Dad,” Melissa said. “Please? Just five more minutes.”
The man nodded (点头) and Melissa went on riding her bike happily. Minutes passed and the father stood and called again to his daughter, “Time to go now?”
“Five more minutes, Dad,” Melissa said again. “Just five more minutes.”

“Oh, you really are a patient father,” said the woman.
