     My 10-year-old Donna said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over
tomorrow?" Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
     "Sure, honey, that sounds great." I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across
the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my
daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny
black hair and a mile-wide smile.
    In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away
from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." she told me. But three days later, Lillian's sister
told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New
Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
    The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was
so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. "My name is Laura."
    My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura's mom
came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me,
Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights." Yes, my daughter's friend looked familiar. She was Lillian's
niece.

     My name is Nicky. I've been a travel writer for twenty years now. It's a really interesting life. I was
only twenty-one when I started traveling. The first country I went to was Mexico. At first, I studied
Spanish for six months in Mexico City. Then I traveled to other parts of Mexico, and all over South
America. My favorite country was Peru. It has everything-great beaches, tall mountains, and forests
with lots of strange and wonderful animals. Brazil is the only South American country I've never visited,
but I'm a great fan of their football team! I hope to watch a football match in Brazil one day.
    What other countries have I been to? Well, I've been to most parts of Asia. I spent three years in
China, and I lived in India for five years. However, I've never been to Japan. My friends tell me it's
really expensive there. I like to spend my time in cheaper countries. At the moment, I'm living in Vietnam.
It's a beautiful country, and the people are very friendly. I've been living here for two years now, and I
love it!

      My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body. Through the years I would
guess at what I thought was the correct answer.
      When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, "My ears,
Mommy." She said, "No. Many people are deaf. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again
soon."
      Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first attempt, I had contemplated the
correct answer. So this time I told her, "Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our
eyes." She looked at me and told me, "You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are
many people who are blind."
     Over the years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, "No, but you are
getting smarter every year, my child."
     Then last year, my Grandpa died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My Mom looked at me
when it was our turn to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. She asked me, "Do you know the most important
body part yet, my dear? " I was shocked when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game
between her and me. She saw the confusion on my face and told me, "This question is very important. It
shows that you have really lived your life." I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, "My dear, the most
 important body part is your shoulder." I asked, "Is it because it holds up your head?" She replied, "No, it is
because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they cry.
      Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love
and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it." Then and there I knew the most
important body part is not a selfish one. It is sympathetic to the pain of others.

     My vision (视力) is getting worse. I can't even see what is five feet away from me without glasses.
我拒绝戴眼镜, though I know I need to. I'm afraid they will make me look ugly. Besides, I can do well
without them. These were my thoughts two years ago, when I was in the sixth grade. An embarrassing
experience taught me that what I was thinking was wrong.
    ②School has been out for two months. I was going to junior high school soon, where I was sure that
looks are everything. So the question still remained there. Should I, Or should I not, wear glasses? The
question was still in my mind when my family and I attended a wedding (婚礼) late in the summer.
    During the wedding, I drank too much juice. Soon after it ended, I walked quickly to the bathroom. Since
it was an emergency (紧急) and I couldn't clearly see which door was ③marked boys. I just opened the
nearest door and entered the restroom.
     Unluckily, I had entered the wrong restroom. But I didn't know this until I heard a scream (尖叫声) coming
from the entrance when I was washing my hands.
     After that, I decided to wear the ugly-looking glasses. I didn't really ④care about what people thought of
me any more, because I never wanted to enter the wrong bathroom again.
     On the first day of seventh grade, ⑤my friends didn't make fun of me. Instead they gave me compliments.
They thought the glasses made me look more cute and more natural.
     So if you know something is right, just do it. ⑥It doesn't matter what others think of you. All that matters
is what you think of yourself-and that you can see where you are going!
